    I must differ from the opinion above as obviously neither of you have had a date with a redhead, and trust me she is as sexy as they come. I speak of course about a V-12 Ferrari.

    Actually my wife is a natural redhead. I know what you all mean of course when it's mentioned that speakers or a car are sexy. I just don't subscribe to that way of thinking. If I had to choose between naked speakers or my naked wife I would choose her every time. Sexy and naked are not what I would use to describe audio gear. Take all this with a grain of salt of course, I still have very entry level gear. Maybe in the future when I spend as much coin as some of you, I will look at things a little differently.

    reminds me of a George Jones tune.... and she was hotter than a two dollar pistol
    .... she's the fastest thing around.... strong and lean, she's a young man's dream...

    And of course George was singing about the Corvette owner's wife and not the car...
    Agreed, women are best, but a red Ferrari is a very, VERY close second.

    I heard...

    Mike, these are high on my list of lottery speakers. Magico Reference, heard them in a dedicated listening room in a private home. Ezra had a rare Austrailian hardwood fitted between the ribs of the sides of the speakers. Made em look better....and easier to dust.
