😆 lol .Yeah, that's what I figure. I do like to be objective though and try to base my judgement on real life experience. I search online but can't find any real objective analysis of the console. Everything I find seems to more or less be like an advertisement.
I was hoping someone might have...
So you feel like the speakers overall sound better than your Martin Logans did? Imaging is better? I love my Martin Logans, but I'm not stubborn and locked into electrotats only. I'm interested in your comparison between the two.
What models of Martin Logan did you use previously? These...

Like this model. Has anyone heard it? Its $13k. I'm thinking it probably doesn't sound very good, and we could put together a system sounding much better for less. Has anyone heard it?
I know someone that's serious about...
I've never heard of Odyssey, looks like quality stuff! I use a Aragon stereo amp that's made in Indianapolis too.
The two monoblocks for $2000 looks like the way to go. The pair of Stratos for $2700 is a good deal too.
Another option, Emotiva makes monoblocks that are high power and work great...
A sad ending for Quads. Good to know Magnepan still produces their speakers in the USA. Almost everything seems to be made in China now. Even my wife's new Volvo is made there, they own Volvo. Her old Volvo was made in Sweden. So far her new car has been good.
Are the new Quad ESLs priced more affordable now, since they are produced from Chinese parts. Are they assembled there too? Hopefully at least there is a price savings there for the customer?
Oh, ok. I was thinking BACCH did everything, but you can use ARC with it. Have you heard their room correction yet? Is it great too? What's the cost for that?
That's great. So someone could turn off this new program and then run something like ARC on their preamp and compare. I'll have to see if any hi-fi stores around here carry it.
Thats my thought. The OP was talking like he has a next home in mind. How far in the future is this planned? If it is under 2 years then I would probably just keep the new 15's boxed up and fresh like new. Move to the new home and then unbox them for use.
