Currently the Evo's are fulfilling that duty very well, but the opportunity to use a full-range speaker for the rear is something I've always wanted. We will play with both to see what works best. Very excited!







Scott the pics don't do them justice. Saw and heard that pair today.

Bill,

They are something else! Ed's done a real nice job on positioning. I just hope he can make that magic happen in my room.

Seems kind of unprofessional of your dealer to continue to have these as showroom pieces to the public after you have purchased them. They should have been immediately boxed up. A lot can happen in a few days, drivers could get blown, cabinets could get damaged, etc.

Rod, perhaps. But the details of the deal are private. Not to worry, they'll be just fine.

Yep,
