    I hope they put more effort into their products than they did into their website. It's full of typo's, not to mention a liberal sprinkling of techno-bullshit that is quite simply wrong - especially on the DAC page!

    On the speaker page, they manage to quote the speaker sensitivity twice with a different value each time :rolleyes:

    They had a room at the Heathrow show - made absolutely no lasting impression on me.

    They quote FR 3 times for each speaker 40Hz-40KHz then individualy for each speaker 4000Hz - 40Khz for tweeter, then 40Hz-4000Hz for woofer, hope that clears up the confusion, other than that nothing to say about these never heard of them, are they expensive?

    Imagine him trying to drum up business at a show, is that not what he is supposed to do?

    If these were the small standmounts, that had the Tact gear attacted to them, humm definately not a good impression I'm afraid, mistimed and bloated bass, lots of room interaction, and when the joe saturani strum a-like put his disc on, hooooweeeeeee, mucho chord like presenation

    Those were the ones WM. Sounded delightful in the treble, and dire in the bass. Really very unconvincing.

    I thikn the guy knew it as he asked to borrow the Tact gear. Sadly he didn't have time to set it up and hence did not use it. Should have as there were major room issues there that gave a very poor impression of the speakers IMO.

    I heard these at Heathrow and was hoping to be impressed. A very good HFN review and their pricing made them look interesting but unfortunately the sound was below average and didn't do anything to provoke further interest.

    The much vaunted paint finish might be different but I'd started to get bored of it after about 2 minutes. A friend of mine back in school days once took a couple of cans of car spray paint to his midi-system speakers, the visual results were very similar to the Pinsh look.

    Of similar size and design at the show were the Arum Cantus standmounts, which I thought sounded (and looked) wholly more impressive.
