I'm posting a listing of our content for December, in case you guys find any of it useful. Of particular interest I think would be Doug Schneider's Vivid B1 review. Basically he found it superior to some high-profile speakers . . . it is the highest-resolution speaker Doug has reviewed (and he's reviewed many!). There are some clunkers here, too, such as the Compact loudspeakers. (Note: The equipment reviews that appear last in each section are posted on December 15). I'd be happy to answer any questions about any of these articles.
