A warm audition
I went yesterday to Ann Arbor and audition a pair of speakers that is on my short list. The Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Concert Grand . The speakers were warm but not too warm, articulate and dynamic they have muddied up my plans

Don't you hate when that happens You have a couple, maybe three speakers, components, etc,,, you want to audition and then something totally unexpected comes along and throws a wrench into your well laid plans.

These were in the main area of the store... not an optimal area...I have heard many much more expensive systems that didn't sound near that good
