Thanks for asking! Of course you don't really expect me to answer that question with total objectivity, do you? I mean, even if my speakers sucked, a) would I have noticed and b) would I admit to it??

I showed systems in two rooms. In Room 9002 I showed my smaller speakers, the Stormbringers, with Ralph Karsten of Atma-Sphere, David and Jo Ann of Magnan Audio Cables, and Tri Mai of Tri-Planar. In Room 1100 I showed the taller Jazz Modules with NTV Amplifiers, which is Richard Gray with a different hat on.

Below I've posted links to some online photos and feedback that I got on both rooms. Most of the feedback has been fairly positive. Anyway, of the people who spent time in both rooms that I got to talk to, their preferences were split roughly 50-50. The Stormbringers are a little on the laid-back side, while the Jazz Modules I'd call closer to neutral.

Also, I finally got my website updated. Thank you, Stan! Included is a page on my speakers.
