I've never been a fan of their earlier attempts at speakers, but I haven't sat down and spent any time listening to them, but I've read some reviews and they seemed to be very positive on their newer technology. I think the concept is interesting as what I was told is they are trying to create a sound field more similar to a panel speaker, but with traditional tweeters instead of stretches mylar. I like VSA, I don't know if I would buy them, but I think they are great. but I do know what you mean. I can appreciate your point of view.

"2 extra doors....". Um. that's the best line yet. Well, I kind of see what she's talking about. Not that I blame you for keeping the speakers. She should have been a little more understanding.

I was been conjured into buying a used, but mint shape pair of the Duntech's. I just didn't have the power to drive the things. they were actually dirt cheap as they had someone that brought them in to the local dealer and Duntech had recently gone out of business, so the seller just wanted to get rid of them. Boy, was i tempted. I had to resist, those things were just massive. They were HUGE boxes. A lot bigger in person than any photo I've seen.
I think it would be a neat experiment to be taken around to different rooms at these audio shows blind folded and we found out at the end of the show what we were listening to as we look at our notes on what we liked and didn't. I think a LOT of us would have a different perspective on certain products.
Interesting idea. That's the approach in wine tasting.
And ideally all systems playing the same album / track.
And preferably tracks we are familiar with and like. This is more of example focusing on listening without knowing without bias and to maybe understand if we really make our choices based on sound or looks or being a fan of the mfg.
I tend to believe that well-designed components with reasonably standard input and output specs play well together, so in past systems, I've mixed them with good results. If I didn't believe that, however, I'd buy electronic components from one manufacturer. I can't say I understand believing in synergy, than taking a path that makes it difficult to achieve.
