Given what you've already been able to accomplish, there's no reason everyone should not be patient and let you go about your business. We'll all get speakers in the end, if that's what we want. (Hint: It is). Would be nice to get updates when you find it feasible to do so. I think everyone...

Too early (late) for Lipra Loof! But would be just the thing for playing Radiohead!

Did somebody at Monoprice shoot this thing before they sent it to you? In any case, thanks for the autopsy, Amir.

I, for one, have never really like the Britiish Gentleman's Club wooden cup style earphone. To me it add weight, maintenance needs, and resonances. And it kinda shows in this design, doesn't it? Seems like it was built to create an aura of something plush and handcrafted, rather than being...

You should look into SVS subs, the OG SB 2000 in particular. Though discontinued I see it on sale in the warehouse for $600-650 from time to time. That's for a brand new 12" powered sub that comes equipped with both a high and low pass filter that's capable to playing 25 hz at 100 db with...

I always look at it and say there are two parts to this. One the one hand ASR and Amir are measuring gear and letting everyone know how the gear complies with existing standards. I have no doubt Amir is doing an unimpeachable job and an invaluable service to the community in doing that. Then...

If you have REW and a Umik-1. it might be nice for you to take a measurement of how the LS 50's + sub crossed over at 150 HZ look, particularly with regard to distortion at 85 and 96 db. Don;t think anyone has ever done that measure on that particular set up here.

Looks very good. It's value priced, has very good directivity, can play full range and is an active monitor. It won't play super loud, but not 5" midwoofer based design will, so it's hard to take points away for that. Only thing, IMHO, is the distortion in the treble. I think 1.5% will be...

And I hope this doesn't mean Erin is shut off from reviewing the products.

My Octo DAC 8 Pro has an AES/USB mode which enables SPDIF input of an LPCM data stream formatted as AES/EBU to be passed through as USB in order for it to be sent to a computer or work station where any manner of DSP processing can be effected on it. The LPCM stream is then sent back to the...

Clearly the high priced spread! Only justified if its industrial design is congruent with the buyer's aesthetic tastes, though its features are top notch and it performance measures as unexceptionable. Looks like a $500-600 USD price premium which is more than halfway to a pair of ASCI F6B's...

Let's look at it this way. For smaller monitor level speakers, many if not most of us, starting from scratch, would probably prefer something like the Genelecs, Neumann's, or possibly the Kii's or the D & D's. But, what is you have a big living room and want something that's both stylish and...

Most people here understand what you are maintaining. There are always a few who do things like look at a "waveguide", decide it's a $2 piece of plastic and think with a few woodworking tools, some particleboard and some drivers ordered from Madisound, they can do the same. And of course they...

So this is like "Mad Libs" for guys like Darko, Micheal, and TAS and Stereophile Reviewers. Why not just use Chat GPT instead?

OTOH, if you already have LS 50 Metas, it probably isn't worth it to go to C6B's. Makes more sense to go to A6B's, or S6B's or C6C's. Which one is really the question I'm pondering here. Also would be nice to see someone weigh in on these models vs LS 60's or even Reference 1 Metas.

I think the one to wait for if you're willing to spend is the A6b which will compete with the Kef Reference 1 and the March Audio Sointuiva for the title of world's best passive bookshelf.

We are witnessing the birth of what will be a titan of high end audio. It's like we're seeing the first products of a Genelec or a Kef. This company will be a difference maker in terms of the price to value ratio in the same way Topping is with DACs or Purifi is with amplifiers, it's every bit...

Pls keep us posted. I'm looking at possibly purchasing a pair of A6b's later in the year. Never imagined it would be this kind of hassle with duties, tariffs, etc. IDK why anyone would think this kind of thing will redound to anyone's economic benefit, regardless of nation or political affiliation.

Just a stupid great bargain. I'm glad they decided to sell the ones with the fiber woofer worldwide as it seems like the perfect entry level speaker at $575 a pair. Just a handful of years ago this level of performance was unobtainable at even ten times that price. With a sub, perhaps a...
