Can you give a more quantitative description of what a small medium and large room means? I assume a small room is about 10-13 feet (3-4m) in length/width, but other people can have different ideas. I have no idea what a large room can be, since I'm not one of those with big houses. That said, I...

How about the Legacy Extreme or Goliath? All of their speakers have good veneer.

Totally agree. OMA's Jonathan once said, and I'm paraphrasing here, audio hobby is a life style. And style is important, to me at least.

Ok, now that we have beaten the Neumann and Genelec options to death, let's broaden your choice a bit, shall we? Take a look at the Harbeth NLE-1 active speakers. I read somewhere that they have a very flat FR curve. The price would certainly fit your 'high end' requirement better than the...

Because the amount of efforts/money needed to make a marginal improvement in sound is too great for most people to comprehend.

Hindsight is always 20/20. The important thing is to stick to your strategy and not deviate from that.

There aren't many chatters about these speakers online. The the few I've seen were all quite positive.

It's a necessary trait when you sell something that is a bit more than just a product, especially when that something is heavily based on unique aesthetics/design.

Thin wall with some absorber material, that's the design of the old BBC speakers. Today, Harbeth and a few others still have that design with great results. On the other end of the spectrum, you have companies like Diapason that use solid wood to build their cabinet, also with surprisingly good...

Wow, stunning. We definitely plan to visit Spain again in the future. Looks like we need to check out Galicia.

Speaking of your country, my wife and I just came back from a two week trip to Spain. We visited Moraira, Toledo, El Escorial and Madrid. Absolutely loved it!

These are not movies, but short series on Netflix. If you like good heist movies, and don't mind Spanish with subtitle, the original Money Heist on Nextflix is great. For a good sci-fi, try Three Body Problem.

Here's what I do: PCM filter: fast PCM NOS: enable DSD direct: off But to be honest, I don't hear a lot of differences. The only reason I left the NOS option 'on' is because that's what you buy the R26 for, isn't it?

Everyone has their comfort level, even (or especially) for professional investors. A disciplined investor would not touch a great idea when it is outside of their 'investment thesis.' The truth is, no one can predict the future. People lose a lot of money in things they do understand as well...

Oh, no. I wasn't talking about you or any specific person. It's just my impression after the last year or two reading other threads. Again, usually about products, not people.

You are right. The conversation did diverge into high-priced and high spec'd product, which is different than snake oil.

It sure would. There seems to be a pervasive distain for high priced products by many in this forum. I personally put significant value on visual design and user interface. For one thing, tech specs are easy (cheap?) to achieve, as Topping and others have shown. But what about good design and...
