I've always wondered how the Extremas would hold up to today's more modern designs. They were state of the art in the early 90's and the speaker that got me into this hobby. I'll always have great memories of the first time I ever heard them. I've seen a couple of pairs on Audiogon through the years....the cheapest I've seen was around $5500 with stands. I would love to compare them to some popular models these days.
