For few who knew these are my dad's speakers he gave me as a birthday gift. The original plan was for him to get the SDA speakers he found at a thrift shop re veneered and those were to be my gift, well lately his memory has been pretty short and every time I'd call him about it he'd say "I'll talk to the guy thursday" well long story short these ended up being my gift.

Right away late last night I turned on the soundtrack from inception and my wife says "wow that sounds much better!" And it wasn't even that loud, I could tell a huge improvement as well! I cannot wait to crank these babies up tomorrow, I cannot wait!

    Awesome speakers. Excellent soundstage and imaging for not being SDA.

    Never leave for tomorrow what you can do today. :D [/quote]

    Trust me I didn't want to wait. We watched Inception today and impressed with the gun fire and the train in the first dream their in with Mr. Fischer. Cool movie, I'm gonna put some good music on tomorrow. The sound stage is much bigger than the monitors were. I love my hifi classics:)
