JTinn:
Thanks for the responses. I did not know that you are as well connected to Playback Designs, Wave Kinetics and were the importer of darTZeel. When you say "I have responsibilities to keep those products seen at trade shows" that makes perfect sense to me and certainly legitimizes your auditioning your speakers as you did. What I objected to is such expensive front end on your speakers --- it was perceived by me initially as yet another example of what I have seen too often -- a vendor forwarding their product under unrealistic conditions that can come at the detriment of the potential consumer. Now that you explain why you did what you did (your being connected to and part of much of the associated equipment as well) you have convinced me that what you did is far, far, more reasonable a thing than I at first thought.
So... I would simply suggest that you consider --- in addition to what you have been doing --- also demoing your speakers with lesser electronics at some point so as to enable consumers to project what your speakers might sound like in a system consistent with what most 2.5K speakers have as a total system
I do apologize to you for causing stress. As you say, it is easy for us consumers to post... we have no livelihood associated with the product --- you do. Again, apologies.
Please recognize that all along I have never doubted the quality of your product, just the context of the demo. I actually would love to hear your speakers at some point... with about 10K of front end!
Best of luck with your products... clearly those who have heard your speakers are eminently impressed. I simply ask all who have posted on this thread, no matter what your position might be on the demo context, acknowledge that JTinn has clearly made a product that must be pretty darn impressive. Again, I hope to hear it soon.
