No love for Verity?

Reading through the myriad "recommend a speaker" threads, the list of the "usual suspects" often seems to be headed by Vandersteen and Magnepan, together with a bunch of others (Harbeth, Wilson, etc., etc.).  But I can't remember the last time when in one of these threads I read of someone recommending Verity.  What gives?  Are all the satisfied Verity owners over on one of the other forums?

I've not heard any Verity speakers, but I have not heard a speaker with a plastic cone midrange that I would actually buy (preferring paper cones or fabric domes).  Except for *possibly* the Rockports, (or are Magicos in that group?) - but I am not ready to shell out $20K+ yet.  Harbeths, Dynaudios, etc. are nice, but don't make me want to take them home for the long-ish term.

Not to say too much beyond the owners run the company differently than a lot of what's expected in the industry.

Beautiful looking and sounding loudspeakers.  I've never felt less than impressed when listening to them, including the pair I heard at John's / @jmcgrogan2  home

Yeah they just don't advertise and hence don't get many reviews or much attention (kinda similar to Gershman in that regard IMHO) .  However, they are among the most natural and musical speakers I've heard, which as others have said might just mean they're listening to music rather than touting how good their speakers are.  Avoid them at your own risk -- they're very well worth a listen.

Underrated as hell.  I prefer Verity over any Magico, Vandersteen, or the like.
