Hey Dlwask, I didn't have to sell the MAXX! I owned them for five years! The Caravelle sounded better; more musical, just as dynamic, but not without a subwoofer. You will need a sub (preferably 15inches or bigger) to get to 95% of the MAXX. Now, if you are talking about a room that is 25ft or more in length and a little wider than 16 ft, the comparison then would favor the bigger speaker; but not in the room I am in.
Seth, it had to be somebody: and that be you. I have a new listening space? Hellooooo? You couldn't resist could ya.... forgeddabout it.

I was only teasing you Warren cause I knew you'd be here in time ;o)

I wish there was somewhere here (Los Angeles) that I could listen to the Caravelles as I need to put together a new system.

best regards

Ellery, when they come out with Son of Caravelle or the like I'll give you a deal on my Caravelles that you won't be able to refuse..lol..Hey, I know you be fun'n wit me. Have a great Labor Day weekend. I know where I'll be: Dune road, Road K in Hampton Bays. Paradise....warren
Warren, you might want to reread my post. Never once did I say the caravelle wasn't a good speaker. All I'm doing is pointing out the facts. Here's a little tidbit from your review:

"Now, onto the sound. First and foremost; the bass. If I had my eyes closed, and had no idea what I was listening to, I would never, in a million years, think for a moment that I was listening to a small speaker. NEVER! Prodigious, deep, well extended (enough ho hum adjectives for ya?) bass. Clear articulation of bass notes, with speed, clarity and slam rivaling anything I've heard. Patricia Barber's "Use Me" on her Companion album (second track)has a 4 string bass run that will rattle your sternum if your speakers have the balls. The Caravelles do, and handle this extended powerful bass line effortlessly with slam and spl levels at, near, earbleed levels."

Now you're running two subs.. As far as your comment towards me: "it had to be someone". I could say the same for you, I can pretty much always tell which threads you will respond to. You are happy, and that's great, but let's keep an open mind here, the Caravelle is not the only speaker on earth. There are thousands and thousands of others. Hopefully you haven't forgotten that.
