Anyone Using Crystals?
Well... it works... I challenge you to try it.I use an alum crystal suspended in front of each speaker. I then train a vaporizer on each crystal.And I shoot a spray of Apple Cider Vineagar across the fog from the vaporizers at a 90 degree angle in... 
Class D is just Dandy!
Randy-11...Yes... the SDS-470C by "ClassDAudio" is superb in all respects, and competes with the Parasound JC-1's, A-21, etc. for about $700.  I've got them all... as well as... the Atma-Sphere M60's... and... it competes well with all of these.ht... 
MMGs
Have to agree with those of you who have had your Maggies "Gunned."  Had my 1.6's "Gunned" - big improvement.  Better bass, and greater resolution / clarity / definition than stock, and many other speakers.  Of course the soundstage and imaging ar... 
Small room electrostat/ planar speaker?
Well... if you like the Maggie sound... you should likely consider the MMG’s and .7’s for that size room... or... maybe even the Mini-Maggies with DWM.But... if you want to consider a proven "giant killer" - you’ll want to consider these, which I ... 
Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money?
Wavetouch Audio Grand Teton MonitorsWavetouch Audio Antero MonitorsClassDAudio SDS-470C Stereo AmplifierI have several pieces that are incredible values... but... these are "stupid good" values. 
Class D is just Dandy!
erik_squires That has been my experience as well...The "Class D Audio" SDS-470C is... very, very close to the Parasound Halo amps.  The area in which the Halo amps might be a wee bit better (maybe) is in the clarity, and crispness of the bass (... 
Small living room speaker options.. Totem Arro?
Small room, or big room - it makes no difference - the WaveTouch Audio Antero's are unbeatable.  But, they do need some space around them to sound their best, which rivals about any speaker made.   
Class D = Trash?
Well... a lot of techy discussion here... and... I don't really know why my "Class D Audio" SDS-470C sounds so incredible (e.g. Ice vs Hypex vs something else or switching vs linear, etc.) - I just know it does.  And... it seems to sound as good o... 
Class D is just Dandy!
As several have noted the "Class D Audio" brand amps are superb.  I have the SDS-470C and think it may sound as good as my PHalo JC-1's and Atma MA-60's.  Amazing... actually.  And... I think I'm going to try a couple of his 4 channel amps to driv... 
Best full range loudspeaker for the used price of 10 to 13,000 dollars
hddg - indeed - Tannoy Westminster GR by far... but... who’s going to spend that much money on speakers!And... who is going to have the space and muscle to set them up properly! 
Should high-end shops be "OBLIGATED" to advise about component matching for best sound?
As others have said... it may not be realistic to expect any audio dealer and their staff to be so experienced that they might be able to advise the customer in how well all components match, or how all compare to others. In addition, they’ve sele...

Class D = Trash?
"islandmandan" - yes... the "Class D Audio" brand of class D amps are great amps at a great price.  As I understand it... they use a linear power supply, rather than a switching power supply, which makes a difference.  I have the SDS 470C, which s... 
best speakers what do you think
To "Plutos"...Yes... the Wavetouch GT's / Anteros use the AMT tweeter - which I find sounds better than most others - pristine, life-like, spacious, extended highs, with superb clarity and definition, without the brittle, brilliance of beryllium, ... 
best speakers what do you think
But... of the two... I'd choose the Focal.
