Hey Erik, Who is Fritz? What speakers does he make?
Poor Fritz
There’s no better value and no one as willing to make bespoke speakers out there than Fritz and these forums treat his speakers as if they cost $200K.
They don’t. They are remarkably affordable and yet potential customers put him through the absolute ringer, asking for custom features, going through 2 or 3 models of home auditions and maybe not even buying any of them.
Look, you buy what you want to buy, but I think not enough credit is given to the man or his speakers in terms of the overall value proposition and I think this is a disservice overall. If you write a 5 page review, please keep this very much in mind that you are not reviewing Wilson or Focal's flagships. Maybe he doesn't deserve quite the same scrutiny.

http://www.fritzspeakers.com/ In the price bracket he's operating in, these are absolutely THE BEST. |
I have never seen a bad word about the man,or his speakers. To me at least, it seems that when folks buy his speakers,they keep them. I constantly check classifieds,and I think I’ve only seen 1 or 2 pairs come up for sale in the last couple of years. I’ve never heard any of his speakers,however, this is one brand I would feel comfortable purchasing on the blind. I didn’t realize folks were that critical of him. |
@rocray -- happy to tell you about my experiences if you want to P.M. me. @eriksquires Erik, I agree with you so wholeheartedly that I reviewed two of his speakers even though (for circumstantial reasons, mainly) I went with some Salks. Honestly, there is a small set of extraordinarily capable speaker makers who are both artisanal and affordable, who listen and give great value and customer service. Salk and Fritz are two of them. And Fritz works extraordinarily hard and is a one man company. My hat’s off to him. People who give him hard time are really obtuse. But the reviewers know and many of us know the truth. 40 reviews, here: http://www.fritzspeakers.com/sound.asp |
