TAD R-1's vs Yamaha Soavo NS-F901's ....

Ever since I posted this thread I have been looking at the used market here on Audiogon and they have been A LOT OF TAD SPEAKERS for sale, MAYBE the word is getting out now!!..

Long live the new KING of GIANT KILLERS!!...

I'm waiting for these speakers to go on CLOSEOUT so I can get them .. CHEAP!!....

Good luck with that. A year after their release they're $1999 each everywhere but Amazon, where they're $2499 each.These floorstanders are the only speakers in the series still available in the USA. Look at all the discontinued models.

That's a stretch. There are two TAD listings currently, and one is a dealer's floor model. Just because there are used TADs for sale doesn't mean the Soavos pushed them out. To be a giant-killer it has to re-define the market like the Advent-1 did. These haven't even gotten off the ground here.

One of my friends just got a pair of these speakers and I'm speechless! These speakers make you feel like your in the Recording Studio and the Artist is performing for you in your room!! Close your eyes and it sounds like the Artist is in your room!... That's PRICELESS!!...
