Tidal Speakers owners

Bvdiman, paying 65% of MRSP for Stradivari seems like a good deal & to get back 60% of purchase price is pretty decent. I do agreed Sunray at 69k pre owned seems like a good buy . It certainly indicate that the original price is way too high. Wondering why some manufacturer price their products so high , give dealer 50-60% margin , only to have dealers discount it by 20-30% to sell their products . Wouldn't it make better sense to start at a lower MRSP? Wouldn't that attract more buyers? I was recommended Tidal Diacera SE at MRSP of abt USD69 which is what Wilson Maxx3 . Without opportunity to compare I would certainly go for Wilson Maxx 3 for the simple reason it's easier to dispose a well known brand and at a higher price as well.

Tbg, thanks for advises. can you elaborate more about how Stiipoint SS improve sound of SE? And where I can buy them at reasonable price?

My SE is a demo pair, AAudio told me it has 300 hrs already, all I have to do is set-in.

tbg..i have had my 'shorting plugs' and the 'port plugs' in from the outset...what difference do you notice without them ...?..i will have to go home and try it without and see.i can't believe the sound could get better but i will see..thanks for the info..dave...'calloway'

quanmer...i can second the improvement the stillpoints ultra ss make..i,too, tried them after seeing tbg's review in 'stereotimes' and love what they do..there is much better detail and transient response.bass seems to be better also.

You can check out my StereoTimes review and see a picture of them under the Contrivas.

They are pricy. I know of several dealers, but don't know about any discounts. You would need eight of them.
