Summary:
I have owned the RS1000s for a couple of years now and I have been extremely satisfied with their performance in both HT and 2ch music listening. They are perhaps the most versitile speakers I have ever heard. They have a great amount of detail, amazing soundstage, good imaging and have an extremely well balanced and smooth sound. For those who know or who have heard about how good the RS850s are, I must let you know that the RS1000's are a step above the RS850s. I find the 850s are an amazing speaker; however, they lack that last bit of bass and at times they sound a bit thin. The 1000s have all the bass that you would ever need and by adding that extra bass, the sound becomes significantly more rich. The 1000s never sound thin or lacking in any respect and I could sit and listen to them for hours without fatigue. I think av123 and Mark Schifter have done an amazing job with this speaker. I think the RS1000s are speakers that can end most people's search for a speaker that they could live with for many many years and even for ever.

So many to choose from! Lets us boil it down. How to Choose a Floorstanding Speaker that fits you:

Give someone the gift of hi-fi. Or make the step yourself. Let us point the way...

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

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.
