i went the longest in happy land with my usher 6381's then this guy named ron brought his newly purchased pair of usher dancer mini 2 dmd to the lsaf one year and a guy brought a bb king cd by the room that brought tears to my eyes. could have been the alcohol but from that moment i said i had to have a pair.
finally got the chance when the then distributor of usher was in dallas had a new pair but with the Be tweeter. the cabinets and cast iron base were the new dmd implementation.
while the Be tweeter is a great tweeter on it's own i still had a, well you know how you feel when you have a spot with a small itch that you don't really have to scratch but once you do it feels soooo good
well that happened to me when skip brought the mini-x dmd over to todd's. i sat there mesmerized at the minute details just rolling off the dmd tweeter. don't think todd or skip noticed i had drool, so i have now set in motion the gears to obtain a pair of dmd tweeters.
as tight as i am with money, these things cost more than what a lot would spend on speakers, but what the h*ll i'm weak.
i put this all on skip if he had kept them bleeping dmd's away from me
my name is marvin and i am an audio addict.

Don't be to hard on yourself. You must realize audio is a disease with no cure. You can only feed it more gear.
