    I read a review of these 101 Extremes at Absolute Sound last year and they got the Overall Product of the Year Award with a split vote going out to the Wilson X-2 as well. The Extremes cost $199K and that gets you the pair of 1000 lbs Radialstrahler towers, a pair of 500+ lbs subs, as well as a trip from the actual designer of the speakers who will come in person to calibrate them in your room. Now that's customer service :D

    Along with their preamp,cd,transport,cables it adds up to one heck of a nice but $$$$$rig.The PRICE is much higher since last year.

    I can only imagine what they sound like! It just amazes me that we have the technology to build something like that. Not to mention the sound it produces must be exquisite. I would love to hear them in person.
    Wow, just wow.
