What's up with Talon?

Designer Thierry Budge left the company. I don't know much else.

I spoke to Mike the other day, he was out of the country for a few weeks. He is very busy with a new model coming out last time we spoke.

Happy Listening.

I know there most popular model (Khorus?) it's price in the used market dropped like a stone when the newer model came out a year or two ago.if interested in buying look to used market and compare the two.Know that there was post a while back where people were asking 'why is this happening" but the possible improvement verusus the huge slash in used market a number of responders were skeptical that you could get that much more from same basic design that had benm upgraded.Man when you think about it is am,zing how many audio companies survivbe at all given the num,bers of competition.

NOTICE THE AMOUNT OF TALON SPEAKERS FOR SALE RECENTLY.????
THAT SHOULD GIVE YOU THE ANSWER YOUR LOOKING FOR. I KNOW A REVIEWER WHO SOLD HIS BECAUSE OF THE UNCERTAINTY WITH THE COMPANY,AND THE DESIGNER LEAVING ............

BILL L.

Spoke with Mike recently and asked him that very question point blank....

Was told that the designer leaving (only one of several on staff) was VERY mutual and that it had more to do with differences in design and opinion then anything else. And that the decision for the designer to leave was made and implemented even before the Firehawk began; it just took a while to get to the public.

Mike's an amazingly good guy who has been going through some personal hell and is now, finally, ready to give his all to Talon with no distractions.

Plus, apparantly he has some financial backing for the company that is strong, suportive and very interested in seeing him succeed.

He made it very clear that Talon is here for the long haul and is already working towards long term plans, new (even better) speakers and loftier goals.

Watch out Logan and Wilson, here comes Talon!!!
