I was on an upgrade path recently that, when I got to the end, had a slight problem with one of my speakers so just decided to buy the new just released model. I am typing next to the old ones with no clue what to do with them but love my new ones! And it only took a few days to get them so it really was a fun experience.
Can we talk?
At least a few who have been in this game long enough have made at least one significant impulse purchase. Who can blame you, given the loss of real-world listening opportunities?! What I'd like to hear about are the colossal mistakes: those involving an impulse purchase of a MAJOR BIG-BUCKS component, one that you ultimately regretted and sold. C'mon, were all friends here, unburden yourself! I want the stories behind those near-new Magico Q7's and Wilson Alexandrias that we see on Audiogon and on Ebay from time to time, and any others you think are worth mentioning. What are the specific features of the speaker that failed to satisfy? Thanks for sharing!
