Speakers to hang on to for LIFE

Matt thats' one heck of a list. Are you still looking to get into the Focal Utopia Stellas?

Man, I've been switching out my Thiel CS 3.5's, Totem Hawks, and a pair of Magnepan MG3a that I just picked up for $600. I keep returning to the Thiels because they attack like the Maggies...with more bass. The Maggies...well, they DO need power to show what they have but at those listening levels I can't say I will keep em. Plus they're almost taller than I am. The Thiels also need some juice behind them to strut their stuff, but are better at the levels I listen to most frequently. I have a Pass Labs X150.5 amp so I have the power to drive them both well. The Hawks? Hmmm. Brand new but...compared to the aforementioned VERY colored overall. Not necessarily bad but...different. I have decided to release my DAHLQUIST Dq10's - they're just not in good company here imho.

I can see where the DQ's aren't making you happy anymore, lol.

Dynaco A25 good for 100 yrs at least.

Any Meadowlark ever made.
