Mojo, thanks for the audition at your place today. I wish I could have stayed longer, it was great to listen to the variety of speakers you had there. The EP600 wasnt as large or intrusive as I pictured it to be. Man it moves a ton of air. Still think Jakewash needs one or an EP500 at least.

After hearing the M60's and M80's, I would definately justify the extra $$ and buy 80's if I was going for a floor stander. Although if you can get Ron to part with the "mystery speakers" I would consider it as I really liked their detail, despite being lean on bass. The "mystery speakers" were a cool twist.

The clarity of the M22's vs. the M3's was really noticeable. It just showed how impressive of a bookshelf speaker the M22's are. That being said, I think the M3's will be great for my 2ch setup in the family room when I reno it soon. I love my M22's with sub, but without a sub, I think the smaller M3's best suit my needs.

Anyways, thanks again. I'll call you when I get back to pickup my STF-3.

later,

Hi Al,

You're welcome and thanks very much for bringing the Hsu. I really do love the 80s...many say that the QSs are the stand-out and although I like these as well, the 80s are the stand-out product for me.

I could be wrong but my buddy would never part with the mystery speakers \:\) .

Not even for some M80s?

Probably not because he's not willing to spend any money on audio in the foreseeable future. But, that may change after he brings his Nuances (which are his main speakers BTW) over for AB testing.

Weren't those the speakers that were sold by a store chain that went out of business a few years back? I can't remember the name though.

I'm not sure. I'll let you know what they sound like after we hear them.

No, you should tell us what they sound like beforehand, so we know what your pure bias is. Then, listen to them subjectively, remove that pure bias from your impression, and that's what they sound like. There's no need to go through the hassle of double-blind listening tests at that point.
