Hi CR,
There's no need to explain. That statement was intended to be a compliment. I'm sorry if you misunderstood. I think you're great at what you do and Louis should be very grateful for having you. You're a true professional in that you try to be as honest as possible while also being faithful to Louis. You're one of the main reasons I wanted to try the single driver approach and now you're the guy that has convinced me to go Alnico. If in the end, the sound I hear is as good as what you're describing, I will only have you and Louis to thanks.
More importantly, I really feel from reading all your posts on Omega that we have very similar tastes and criteria as far as being an audiophile. Your main system components are very similar to mine and so I really try to use your results and experiences as a tool in helping me decide what I should invest in to take my system to a level where I'll be content and satisfied.
With the Alnico monitors and Skylan stands, hopefully I'm on my way.
