New Perlisten S7T Towers

Hi everyone. Has anyone here had a chance to hear these? A brand new company in Wisconsin - first speakers ever to achieve level 4 THX Dominus certification. Not inexpensive at $16k a pair.

Second question, what percentage off of full retail would you consider fair? And the same question on a expensive Lyngdorf MP60 processor, $14k retail.

Thank you all!
Dave

It they are that good why worry about your "deal"?
You will be f-ed in the end either way.
Sit back and enjoy the ride!

Their CSO, Lars, has been in the industry 30+ years (JBL, M&K, etc.).  He is Danish which might explain the wisconsin connection (Dane county, WI) haha!

I see $7500/pair which is more reasonable. I do not like them for several reasons. The checker board design is pure glitz and totally unnecessary.
They put a waveguide on the tweeter but not the midrange where it is most important. The directionality of the drivers should be matched as closely as possible. No, I have not heard them and do not care to. My analysis is base on a review of the design. I think Golden Ear makes a better speaker in this price range IMHO.

$7500 is a typo. $16k a pair is correct. All reviews I’ve seen and YouTubes are extremely positive. I should be able to audition soon.
