Funny how none of the mud slingers on AVS have stepped up and asked to audition the speakers.
I think most of the serious slinger's had multiple reason why they felt the audition wouldn't shed any light, due to all the changes, switch quality, etc. Too bad, since I think aside from a straight cap to cap comparison, the test would be quite revealing.
I read most of the threads, and am amazed that nobody is able to see the middle ground, where certain aspects of the argument from both sides of the fence are correct.
It would be nice to filter out all the egos and posturing, into a handful of general 'truths', or rules of thumb.
