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.

I have been on Fritz's site many times drooling over his speakers. The seem to have a simple sophistication about their design.

There has been so much positive talk about his speakers across the internet that I am very curious to hear them for myself. I feel that speaker design is a very nuanced art. Much skill is needed to even be able to hear what is off, never mind how to fix it. A bit more to it than just gluing a box and throwing some drivers/capacitors/inductors/resistors into it like the Kenidjit would suggest.

This process of buying, returning, buying, returning is just gross.

People order wine at restaurants, and it is understood that if you dont like how it tastes, too bad... Now, if the wine is off, it gets replaced.
And should they be scrutinized by reviewers? No more so than other speakers in their class/price point.

I guess this whole "Wanna try that one" problem has come about as a result of internet shopping. Pro's and cons as a small manufacturer can reach a huge buying public, which is great, but, you then have to deal with some less than "proper" customers.

Kinda like this a poster in this thread, and how the village idiot thinks bricks and concrete make you an architect. Less than "proper"...



so if i wanted to charge you 2000 bucks to change your lightbulb, would that not indicate that i was being unscrupulous?

That’s a silly analogy and typical of your reasoning.

All the best,

Hey Kenidjit,
Just so you know, every single item you post, I'm going to report until you have something of value to contribute.
Wanted you to know that I am in fact doing that.
Now, far be it for me to suggest others do the same...

20 years ago people calling each other names on the internet was a problem.  People got really angry and tried to track each other down.  That ended, we've all seen millions of trolls, been called names a million times, and no longer respond with much emotion.  The next step is to learn to ignore trolls.  It's obvious that they just want attention, but people still can't let it go.  If the trolls were ignored for a few months they'd go away.  Just be an adult and ignore them.  They don't deserve a response.
