Thank you all for the valuable input. The speakers I recently sold after 3 years
were 10+ years older than these so age is not an issue to me if I
am rewarded with an SQ that exceeds an investment of x 10 in newer gear.
If they need refoaming, some people still do that well.
If the XO tests poorly I'll have them rebuilt as I did the previous ones.
If my dog puts a paw through the driver then I may have an issue.
Plan to audition them Saturday. Very curious how they will sound.
JPY- I bought the Fritz speakers and had a 30 day trial.
Once burned in the high end sound was frick-in amazing.
Good Enough to allow me to sell the Tannoys which went
in 2 days locally.
But.... I missed the visceral air movement and midrange magic those old 15s dual concentric provided. So I sadly returned them on Tuesday. Wish I could have kept them for a second setup. I think I will need to stay with a larger floor stander.
Now I am looking for Nirvanna under $5k.
The Curve is out of state so that requires travel.
Will likely be traveling soon to audition more good stuff!!
Trying to be patient but as OCD as I am its not working!
