Makes me wonder if i should try some Ansuz , if i get the possibility .
My dealer warned me I wouldn't send them back -- he didn't say much about these Ansuz Acoustic products as he wanted me to tell him what I thought. So, I went into the A/B'ing "blind." Not really knowing what to expect which was a good way to approach this so called "shoot out."

When I was through, we connected with a phone call & compared notes per se & basically had the same experiences.

You, Flemming, being Danish have probably heard more regarding Michael and Lars than us in the USA. Michael, as you know, founded Raidho Acoustics & recently left, is one smart cookie; sort of like a Jack Bybee & another being Dale Pitcher (from Intuitive Designs - now defunct). He & Lars will continue the Ansuz Acoustics power lineup & speculation is all over the boards on what his new speaker line will entail (if that is what he wants to do -- but he does come up with some earth shattering products as like these Ansuz Acoustics products & Raidho speakers has proven).

Best Sir,

Bob

P.S. Have distant relatives in Skærbæk & last visited a long time ago (1989).
