Need replacement for garden hose Audio Advisor

Hmm, I did not realize I had "cracked" on fostex....
I merely was trying to get out the idea that all of the systems listed on his website seem to be of a single driver nature.
Actually, I have "set ears on them". I was not impressed. They certainly were nice in the mids, but that is all that was there.
I have a guess at your ears......45 plus years of age with decreasing high sensitivity. My hearing runs a bit higher than average, hence....I need some highs. (I like a little bass too......)
FYI, I heard the little fostex system on a Krell KSA??80 with no preamp at all and a very nice d/a with what I think was about an 800.00 pot for the volume control..... I would call that minimal signal path.
I know the amp and had heard the d/a on another system..it was anything but rolled off, yet the highs in those speakers were just not there.
What can I say? I like more than veggies on my plate.
(But I do love Vegans, they taste just like chicken when cooked to perfection.)

PS.... I dont have to duck and run... I am made of clay, remember ;)
Lighten up, dude.. s'all good. :)

BTW VIGGEN:
All they say on them....
"MADE BY RANDY AUDIO ADVISOR INC."

Three pairs of interconnect and a set of speaker wire (with enough left over to wire my parents' speakers) for $600? I call that a bargain, especially when you consider what they do for your sound. In all honesty, I had always been somewhat suspicious of suposed cable differences, but these things have made me (as well as every non-audiofreak friend that I have a/b'd them with) a believer.

Gumbydammit, you were amazingly accurate at guessing my age/ears. Only off by 1 year! I'm 46. Although I can still hear highs ok. I did some mods to my Fostex drivers impedance characteristics to extend the high and low ends. Worked out well. I agree the normal response is rolled off. It's a shame that more people don't mod these drivers, as really good response can be had from them, within reason, for the size/type of driver.

Gumby: No, I am in LA (and don't get out much:-). I have heard good reports on the speakers (that I think you are mentioning), but find them to be priced too high for the US market (unless the crossover and/or cabinet is super expensive for some reason).
