  1. When my brothers and I bought a system back in the '70s, the AMT-1s were the runner up in the speaker department, losing out to the Infinity Monitor speakers with the Walsh tweeter. Probably mostly due to bass response. Nothing else that we were able to listen to made the list. Of course that was in Iowa and our resources were limited. Interesting that Nelson Pass worked for ESS, as did his wife.

  2. I'm not in the market for speakers as I am quite content with my Von Schweikerts, even though they are old. I was toying with going to Axpona this year, but didn't. Maybe next year and would try to listen to a horn system such as the Avantgarde's.

  3. I've always been curious, but biased against, the horn speaker systems. I keep thinking honkiness. I'd need to listen to some good ones with some good neutral acoustic material such as classical. I could be all wet. And they don't meet WAF factors whatsoever :rofl:

    And yes, Steve, all the PS Audio stuff kinda surprised me. I didn't know they were still around, and never thought their stuff was all that well thought of.

    One thing I am toying with buying is a pair of Schitt Tyr monoblocks to replace my Odyssey Stratos.

  4. Work event this week, with one of the better parties they've thrown (and they're all pretty good, this one at Reggie's Chicago). '80s theme party (though most of the crowd wasn't born then), with a co-worker's Tom Petty cover band, who were very good!
