Sorry about the A-holes gdk00111 we do our best to work around them but they are a very determined lot. Anyway all that matters is you were able to work your way around the blather and figure it out and so soon enough you will find out and know what the rest of us know, Eric Alexander is the real deal.
Haven't heard the Electron, haven't heard any of them really other than my Moabs. But I read a lot and spent a good deal of time on the phone with Eric. My bet is you will if anything feel the reviews all understate just how good a speaker Eric really makes.
The situation is kind of like with the Porsche 911. For years I would read all the car reviews and they sure made it sound like one fantastic car. But they also made it sound like well really there are a lot of very fantastic cars that are very close.
Then one day I get one and the more I drive it the more I realize all those reviewers are full of it! There is nothing even close to a 911! What crap to even put other cars in the same magazine!
That is what this is like. There's a guy I know over in the UK, they have hardly any over there because people are afraid to ship and get stuck, but he says everyone over there who has actually heard one is gobsmacked. They are if anything underrated. The competition is overrated. But there are an awful lot out there with what is only slowly dawning on them is old technology. You can expect a lot of butt-hurt. Just go and enjoy your Electrons. I know you will.
