Why can't they get a proper forum?
'cause they like access quick; lean and mean.
I like AA's interface a lot; it is no nonsense and has served 'em well.

Agree with you. It’s kinda clunky.

WTH at 14:10-14:28?
I've never seen that before.
At 14:35, the guy on the right farted. Watch.
I liked the sound in that Aurender room a lot though! What speakers are those?
Nice bass and lively sound.Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
Tony those are the Aurender S88 prototype speakers.

Pretty good. Those Accuton drivers for the bass are very nice.

Thanks for the extra info on those speakers Drew!
Damn I have expensive taste!
I wonder if they are those woofers used in a Devialet speaker system?

Heard the devialet and no, that is not a high end speaker, but a very expensive lifestyle product. The tweeter on that thing is nasty with very bloated bass
Aluminum sandwich drivers sound tasty- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -

Terrible quality photo's compared to yours - they look like there were taken on a Moto razor!
