Rockport Lyras


The speaker that shuts down threads. Must be a good speaker.

He sold them anyways

because he said its a business and he only does this for the business aspect

 

basically, and he essentially admitted most of this in his latest video, he finally located a Lyra pair after a very long search for 2 years (aka he got a used set)

he then went on to hype up this speaker and a follower of his bought them off him. It was a quick flip and he made money

the funny thing is he didnt even like them. But he made sure to make it known in his last video that its a business and thats why he flipped them so fast

he also mentioned that they use the same exact drivers and tweeter that their much less expensive models use, and all that you are essentially getting with the lyras are the upgraded cabinet 

 

if i was in the market for a 200k speaker, personally, rockport wouldnt be in my top 25

This is why listening to him on anything is ill-advised. He has no credibility.

Exactly @hilde45.  The day he left this forum was a happy day for me.

 

I think those YT profiles in Audiogon that go too far should be restricted and blocked. They are of no use at all. 

I'm troubled  no one on this forum seems to own the rockport speakers. My dealer just began offering them and I was interested and now I'm not sure what to do.

I need some speakers for another room and all of a sudden rockport is not as exciting as I thought it was.

Has anyone heard the rockport speakers excluding the Lyra which apparently is not getting great reviews . Flagship speakers are nice but nobody really buys these speakers it's more of a marketing game. 

I have a B&w 800 series speaker and I'm fine keeping it but I need another set of speakers.
