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.

Kenjit I believe these high end speaker manufacturers make speakers for profit and not for practice like you would be doing.
Haven't had the pleasure of hearing his speakers but I can vouch that he's a great guy. I called him with a question and we spoke for hours about all things hi-fi. He struck me as a true artisan. 
Fritz and Clayton Shaw are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet in the industry.
Fritz use top grade drivers ,my only complaint in the past say 4 years ago
was the Xover parts were not what  I considered = to the drivers ,and I am not speaking Duelund ,instead of a magnet over wire sledge hammer inductor use Jantzen open core they are not that much more ,mills resistors he uses are good ,and use 
at least say a clarity CSA,Cmr, or actually value for money the Polish Millflex 
copper oil paper mylar caps not that  expensive and on par with Jupiter Copperfoil , and use wbt gold copper connectors retail less then $75 a speaker 
wholesale $50 add $ 500  to the speaker it is a substantial audio upgrade .I modded them and they sounded great , I traded them in  when I bought a larger Sonus faber speaker , Fritz should offer a SE model ,with all premium parts as I mentioned below, the best resistors period are Path audio , less then $30 each 
vs $4 for caddock or Mills ,it’s funny most $50k+ speakers don’t even use them .
just an observation myself and other audiophiles would pay a little extra to get a SE  speaker maxed out .
