Paging Mr. Albert Porter


Hi Albert, Its been about a year since you got your Dali Mega-Liners. You were nice enough to share your opinions regarding their sound in your system here on the Gon and Positive Feedback Online at the beginning of your audtion process.( An unbelievable long break in, your desire to change certain parts, and waiting to have the external crossovers replaced with custom tube ones, if I remember correctly) Well, what has happened? What's the verdict? Are you a happy audiophile with Dali's now? It would be greatly appreciated if you would share the, "current state of the art" regarding your speakers. I'll thank you in advance.

Albert, I just got through reading, in my opinion, a very well written and comprehensive review of your Dali Megaliners by Paul Messenger in the current issue of hi>fi+. What I think you will find the most interesting and salient aspect of the review will be his comments on the inadequacy/inferior aspects of the Dali crossover, which he believes dramaticly gets in the way of the speakers ultimate ability/performance. I believe thats the same conclusion you came to regarding your Megaliners, hence, your custom made crossovers to get your babies to really sing with their true voice. Just, thought you might want to take a look, so I'm passing this on to you.
Hi Albert, an audiophile friend asked me a question regarding Dali speakers that I could not answer, but thought you might be able to.
The question regarded the Dali speaker, don't know the model number, but believe its their second best speaker after your Megaliners in their line, costs around $14000.00 and has some of the same drive units that are used in your reference speakers is: Does this speaker give you any of the magic/grandier of the Megaliners? If not, do they offer their own virtues at this price range compared with other speakers you have heard? I have heard the Megaliners, but nothing else in the Dali speaker line so I could not be helpful to him at all, thats way I thought you might be able to provide some information and your valued opinion. I will thank you in advance.
