Kharma, Wilson Sophia, JM Labs I'm confussed????

Hey, got taken right to the bank and then had my money stolen out of my hands! Frank i take back the comment and apologize. In fact we talked via JTinn not to long ago concerning the Kharmas that i now own and the differences in your assessment vs. M Fremer's. Thanks for your input. I am now enjoying great sound reproduction. I am glad if i caused some laughter for those on the know, that's good for the soul. Enjoy.

Sea2, if you are in the Seattle (from your moniker) area you are welcome to visit my room to hear what Kharma's can do. i do strongly recommend the Kharmas.

i second Panorama's and Fmpnd's comments (or would that be thirds?)

I'm actually living in Texas after living on both coasts. I apprciate the offer though. My boat's name was SEA2 so I can remember it. I traded the boat on a major Home Theater system about 5 years ago. My first endeavor into Hi End sound. I enjoy music more now so that's where I'm putting my money.. I don't know if there are any Kharma dealers in the DFW area. I'd love to hear them. I like the Focal tweeter. It sounds as if they are winners. I was hoping someone had compared them with the JM Labs mezzo's/alto's and could discuss a comparison. Thanks for the impute.

You traded your boat for a sound system? You should definitely talk to Mikelavigne! :D

I don't have the experience or knowledge of Fmpnd, Panorama, and Mike but for what it's worth I have heard the old JM Labs at a time when stores were clearing them out and really didn't think they were a good value especially since the new JM Labs are a step up from the old. Then again I have never heard the JM Labs in a proper setup but I am enjoying my Kharma 3.2s now and think they are much better at least they LOOK better!

I think I'm one of the few or only Kharma owner without the associated gear to match my speakers. Don't know about full potential but I think my system sounds great. The 3.2s (and I bet it'll apply to the 3.1s as well) are actually quite flexible in its setup. Yes without the highend gear and proper setup it might not sound as good as it can be but it doesn't mean it can't sound good. Plus I really bought the speakers for the headroom it offers. I know that as years roll my speakers would be the last thing I'll think about when I upgrade.

There are no kharma dealers in the whole state of texas. Kharma whips JM Labs without even trying. I prefer the lowliest Kharma over even the Grande Utopia Be's. But try telling that the JM Labs dealer in DFW, he'll never listen.
