All,

Here is a 'links' section on my webpage:

http://www.redwineaudio.com/links.html

Check out the links to American Wired, Dagogo, and Sonic Flare.

Just wanted to share for those who didn't know about these newer sites...

Regards,

...my two year old did that to a pair of speakers I had on loan in my home...luckily it was a silk dome that simply popped back into place.

Had it been a metal dome tweeter it would have been another story..

Thanks for those links, Vinnie.

Already found a really worthwhile review on the American Wired site by Jules Coleman of the Auditorium 23 SoloVox.

This really is a very different, if ultimately traditional, approach to the design of speakers.

This happened on my pair of Mirage M5Si. Since this is a bipolor design which has symetrical tweeter on the front and back of each speaker. My 3 and 5 years old kids have all the metal tweeters pushed in ! Shit !
Well, thats give me an justification to my wife to upgrade my speakers.
Thank kids to do this haha..

Thanks for the links Vinnie.

The review of the Auditorium 23 SoloVox speaker makes some good points about the essence of musical reproduction and how the industry has "moved past" this fundamental heart and soul feature of music. I share the opinion that tonality must rank above aspects like ultimate detail or 20 - 20,000 Hz response.

I liked how thin the panels are (I'm sure in O.B. there wouldn't be much if any resonance from them as they're not under pressure). But the review left out driver size, beaming issues, and rated power handling.
