I have one other company now interested in a shoot out. Does anyone one else have something interesting that they'd like to bring? I think I can put this together pretty easily if there is enough interest.

I'd love to see something against Legacy or Salk  :thumb:  I can't attend but would love a bunch of pics and comments comparing.

Hey Danny, I hope you can line up some YG's for comparison ... because I already know how that A/B comparo goes  :lol:

I'll have as many speakers as I can fit in the car with me, all stand mounts ... and I'd be happy to put any of them in the same room with anything else at any price.  Not necessarily because I think they're better, but because I enjoy finding out just what the differences are. 

I'll be right next to you in the Grapevine room btw.  You get to carry the Arcus over to your room!

The local YG dealer did not have any left in stock.

Danny will your "top level monitor" be the N2X or do you have a secret weapon up your sleve?

I'll be showing with a pair of Super-V's, but I'm also bringing a pair of N3's to show. They will also be for sale. Cabinets were built by Ruben, and they look really nice. They are lined with No Rez and have all of the crossover upgrades.

I am bringing two servo subs for my room too.

I'll have one of these servo subs in Black: http://www.rythmikaudio.com/F12G.html

And I'll have one (my woofer) in a high gloss Black cabinet like this one: http://www.rythmikaudio.com/F12SE.html

Both have been lined with an additional layer of 3/4" MDF and heavy vinyl floor tiles.

Both will be for sale. So if you ever wanted to pick up a completed servo sub or a really nice pair of N3's, now is your chance.

I am working on a new product line for a new client that will include a mini-monitor that I would have to say is of the top level of mini-monitors. But those will not be ready for a while.

Danny:

The top-level mini-monitor darlings of the audio press are the Magico Q1 and the Raidho C1.1.

You can read Jonathan Valin's comments are the C1.1 here.  Both speakers are (not suprisingly) quite expensive, and are typically reviewed with electronics that are themselves considered state of the art, the significance of which may be considerable. 

 I eagerly await the release of your new line of  speakers.

Me too!  The Raidho's are worthy of the praise, the Magico's however are in need of being shown some humility.

Hey Danny, got any extra servo subs laying around?  I'd love to rock some in my room  :D

Maybe Rollo or someone stateside could get you some of the Lenehan's. That would be interesting too.

I am taking two of my 12" sealed box servo subs. I plan to put one in each of the rear corners of the room running out of phase with the Super-V's up front. This configuration does away with some of the room issues and produces an even bass load.

If you want to grab one after hours and move it next door to see how it sounds with your speakers then you are certainly welcome to try one out.

I'll be showing a pair of Super-V's that I have had on loan to Gary Dodd for the last few months.

I am also taking a pair of N3's and servo subs.

All of which are for sale of coarse.

I will have a few new items of interest though. You'll have to come and see hear.

Anyone that would like to bring or send something by is welcome. Shoot outs are fun. There is almost always an unexpected surprise.

Hey, some of those Geddes speakers would be fun.  :wink:
