Review 4 of 13

Price Paid: $275.00 from ABT Chicago

Summary:
Using three amps in my stereo/surround sound system. Replaced the Bedini for stereo. More bass and a lot quieter. Greatly improved by simple modifications. After mods, can easily compete in the $1000+ range.

Strengths:
Solid bass, detailed mids, good imaging, open and extended top end (after cheap mods).

Weaknesses:
None at this price.

Price Paid: $250.00 from Good Guys

Summary:
I'm using two of these bridged to drive a pair of 12 inch Boston acoustic floor subs. My Sony EP9ES decoder tells them what to do and they do it! simple as that. They seem to work just fine and my neighbors hate me! Some day, I'll try driving my mains with them just to check out there musical abillity.

Strengths:
great bang for the buck

Weaknesses:
don't know, don't care

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
