Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it?

I am very close to ordering a pair of the Harmonic Precision Carravelle speakers. I am looking in the below $5,000 range and these look interesting. There are only a couple of reveiws so I was wondering if anyone has heard them and been unimpressed? It is a lot of money but I may take a chance on it. Anyone think I can do better at my price point. I will be buying a new amp after I choose a speaker.

Warrenh,

Geez, in front of the fireplace! Are you crazy, brah. It's 82 degrees outside. Well, at least it is here on Maui !

You were the first that I remember singing the praises of the Caravelles (a bit too often I might add :), but it seems from the response of many others that you were right on the money.

Happy listening and have fun in front of the fireplace with your two tweeters. ;)

Are they using CSC-X Peerless Midbass?

Maui? You lucky man. Been there done that. Like walking through a florist shop, huh? Anyway, you're right about my (last year) over exhuberance regarding the Caravelles. Got a little crazy, but hey, these speakers can do that to an audiophool. peace, warren

Well I purchased the Caravelles today. Talked with Robert for about an hour and a half. He was very informative and assured me if I had any problem within 30 days he would have no problem taking them back. From everyones comments I really doubt that I will be taking him up on that. Now all I have to do is get an amp for them and I will be set. Thanks to all for your input. I can't wait to hear them!

I'm real curious to get your long-term thoughts on the speakers. Keep the rest of us posted.
