    Well a girlfriend does come handy from time to time, but the DIVA's will last me longer
    The DIVA's are 6.56ft tall and are aprox. 242lbs a piece.

    Also the only definition of the sound i can give is "real".

    No wonder you have speakers that tall .Most German woman that tall wont be hard to find its the short ones you cant see.What the average height of woman in Germany.I know when there German Choir at one of the church I take care of ,never see so much tall blonde woman in one room.Im just 5'10 and when they past by me I feel short .Pat.P

    Yeah, those are some cool looking sound producers, but those lamps suck. If all I have to deal with is guys with speakers that I wish I owned, that have cheap a$$ lamps then I here by quit. HAHAhaha.

    They may not be Magnepans...

    But those Divas sure are nice...huge soundstage! The orchestra or jazz band must sound like they're playing in your room.

    I assume from your pictures that your music room isn't all that big. Do you find any sonic degradation from using such enormous loudspeakers in a rather small narrow room? I know I did when I used my huge Klipsch Cornwall horn speakers in my tiny music room (actually a spare bedroom, 12' x 13.5' x 8').

    Nevertheless, congrats on your magnificent Apogees!

    Well the room is aprox 4m by 5m and is totally dedicated. The height is 2.10m which is 10cm higher than my DIVA Since they act like a linesource i have no room problems and they work amazingly. Yesterday a friend from audiocircle was over here and he said, after 3 hrs of listening that this was the best system he has ever heard. Means a lot to me ;-)
