I did answer the question, just not to your satisfaction apparently.

Obviously in my opinion I have found an Acoustat at the same level of performance and at a fraction of the cost. Speak for yourself. And by the way, what is your metric for performance? Why does it seem like you are simply touting your personal, biased, subjective opinion and acting like this "performance" is an objective fact? Who wouldn't pay $$$$$ for something and not think it's the best thing around? Sorry, but your opinion means nothing to me.

Your said you treat up to the Schroeder frequency. That's a limit dsp doesn't have. You haven't taken the room out of the equation. Perhaps your decreased hearing ability at higher frequencies makes further correction unnecessary.

Yes, cranky Roy retired. The new guy knows where to order transformers.

Mine covered one.

And by the way, what is your metric for performance?

Faithfulness to live, unamplified music. Transparency. Tonal balance. Freedom from beaming.

Perhaps you buy stuff before auditioning and hope for the best. LOL!

So, you are still speculating. Got it!

  "Faithfulness to live, unamplified music. Transparency. Tonal balance. Freedom from beaming."
  
  Those aren't metrics, they're subjective impressions. Like I said, you are just sharing your personal opinion, which isn't fact and will differ depending on the listener. You are free to think your overpriced speakers are the best thing in the world, and I am sure for you and others who bought them, they are. As I said, I have heard several models over the years and in my opinion, the Acoustat 6600, with dsp, are preferable. Not everyone shares your opinion. Get over it.
  
  I have spoken with Mike, the new guy, on several occasions. He tells me he can get new transformers. He's a few hours away. I have no reason to not believe him. He has worked on radio telescopes for 30 years. He knows what he's doing. Look him up and ask him before assuming I am speculating.

    Hours away from where?
    
    If comes as no surprise you're not very detail oriented. :)

      It comes as no surprise that you are too lazy to do your own homework. Try google- it's an internet search engine many find useful.

      OK guys, enough is enough. 'Tis the season and all. I'm still trying to sell my 1.6 QRS pair which brought me a couple of decades worth of listening pleasure.
