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.

Quite fond of Decwares approach to audio components.

And for the DUMMIES who think making a speaker is simple for a small manufacturer, have a look at this.

So yeah, you think they are gouging us? I think not. These are objects made out of passion. And, after setting up a shop, designing/testing/re-testing and finally going into production, its going to take a while before a decent living can be made.

Never mind the time it takes to develop the skills necessary to understand how a component works, the cause and effect of making changes, having the ability to decipher what is heard and how to fix, you also need the physical skill to actually build the thing.

These folks are not pumping out a 1000 speakers a day

There are some here who can just shove it with their opinions, cause they don't know $h11T

And lastly, I don’t think you’d even know what perfection was if it slapped you across the face, which by the way, I’d pay good money to see.
and you would? How? 
Also, I have never ever seen you talk about amps, preamps, dacs or cabling.
I start with the thing that makes the biggest difference which is speakers. 
Amps make no difference. I have heard dozens of amps at home and in stores. Cabling makes no difference at all. 

Why cant you tell me what the bad aspects of the Fritz speakers are? All i have ever heard you do is extol the virtues of speakers but never any criticisms
