Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $3610.00 from ebay

Summary:
Highly disappointed. They look impressive and get good reviews however they are way too bright in the midrange and highs and sadly lacking in the bass department. Even with my Bryston 4B amp and both tube and solid state pre-amps they sound artifical and cheap. My $1200 NHT 2.5i sound much better overall.

Strengths:
Cabinet is sturdy

Weaknesses:
Too Bright. Lack deep Bass. Way overpriced.

Similar Products Used:
NHT 2.5i and AR9 towers

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $3200.00 from INTERNET

Summary:
I'm Canadian and let me tell you I love Canadian Stereo products. Paul, you hit the mark with these speakers. I purchased both the Gold and Goldis and loved their sound. Most important, I totally respected their ability to wake up at 100 watts rms. To be totally hounest I sold them only to find a speaker with (what I though was a better midrange). Well let me tell you, I though I found them until I demode the Platnium T8s. I'm most impressed with these speakers. I'm running them with a Bryston 14bsst and let me tell you ,I will not look for a better matched pair.....period. Buy these speakers if you want the very best in sound.

Strengths:
I've said it all

Weaknesses:
Need good amplification, because I almost didn't buy them because of a weak amplifier

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

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.
