    Yes, this is my first post here....so, I guess that's a bad thing in your opinion to be very happy with a product you bought and share it with others as a "first" post????

    you sure make people feel welcome here....thanks!

    ps- no wonder there is not a lot of movement in this forum, because of people like you! I think I will stick with avsforum.com, and feel free to check that I have more than "1 post" over there!

    pss- for those who asked me, here are some pics:

    As Worfster said, there are such things as shills and lord knows we see them everyday. Generally, first posts that extoll the irrefutable virtues of "X" product warrant a bit of skepticism, wouldn't you agree? As I said before, congrats on finding musical nirvana. Believe it or not, I was actually serious.

    I am tempted to do a DIY project using Hi-Vi ribbon tweeters. Hi-Vi drivers are available in Canada from Solen.ca

    congrats on the new speaks...

    I heard the swans about four years ago and though they were a great buy...I enjoyed reading your post more for the excitment I felt from the review rather than as a pure review...because I know how I feel/felt when I'm playing new equipment...fun fun fun!

    Peace, Pogue

    Solen.. good idea. I always forget about Solen when i think of getting Speakers. Mostly i think because they don't have a real online shopping cart and its somewhat hard to use. I picked up a pair of Dayton Planar/Ribbon tweeters from a guy for $25US a while back so I'm interested in slapping something together with those one of these days too.
