    Florian vs. RGA

    Based on Flo's raves they're tempting, but totally impractical for me. I'd have to spend almost as much on an amp, plus they're huge!

    I want to know how someone who can afford the gear, AND hook it all up, etc. ...can't seem to figure out a way to hold the camera steady. For $1700, I'd at least take a second picture.

    Are the speakers behind the screen doors?

    These are easy to drive and amongst the best speakers there are period. No point in a subwoofer and there are no integration issues. Now if you build in new Graz ribbons like in my DIVAS, youd be rocking up and down the street and waking your neighbors. Someone lucky is going to be very happy with them. Keep an eye out for the Duetta 2 Signature!

    PS: 4ohm impedance, around 86db efficency, down to 20Hz, fullrange, dipole with perfect integration and over 100db of SPL in a 40m2 room. If someone with with good ears and a nice place reads this then try them out and forget about all the stuff you read nowadays
    Lots of music but not enough time for it all

    I would make sure you listen to them before you buy them -- I was not impressed.

    Why should i take the blame? RGA postes a false statment and i have to write tons of post that obviously prove him wrong and now i should take the blame for it.

    And RGA has since deleted it, it's time that you give it a rest. Trying to continually repost items that he's already edited and withdrawn reflects a character flaw on your part since you're the one who's now doing nothing but perpetuating an argument that RGA has already walked away from. If you're trying to look like a dumba$$ who gets off on winning arguments with himself, keep it up bro, you're doing a GREAT job.

    The immaturity and blind self-righteousness that you continually display on this forum seems to reach new lows every time you get on one of these tirades. No one gives a crap that you've done all of this listening and bought all of these speakers when the attitude that you continually display is so piss poor. You've got to show respect to get respect, and since it's clear that you've got none to give, that ought to answer your query as to why you're getting crapped on by everybody.
