Verity Parsifal Anniversary coming in 2 weeks
I don't think Verity keeps diluting their lines. They all sound different. The Parsifal is their longest running production speaker. If it were a plant that was being bred and modified over time to produce better XYZ, there is no doubt it would be...

Larrybou, I definitely recommend spikes. What I was trying to say is that I like to keep them on towels because I can easily slide them to many different listening positions. I have wood floors so this method works for me. After that I fine tune w...

Nice Larrybou, when do you expect to have them? I worked my way through the Verity line starting with the Tamino, awesome speaker. After that I made several mistakes/progressions with Totem, Devore, Zu, etc. Next I listened to a pair of Fidelio En... 
Ayre AX-5 Integrated Amplifier
If it can make the Sasha sound good it must be amazing. I'll be on the hunt.

How did you end up buying the Verity speakers? What are you impressions? 
Verity vs B&W
Ggavetti,I'm not familiar with the ESL-57 but I have a hunch I would like them based on the reviews and buzz surrounding them. The highest up in the line of Sonus Faber I've heard is the Cremona M. I must say, the setup was poor (twenty other spea... 
Hyperion hps-968 vs Verity Audio Parsifal Encore
I've not thought of upgrading my speakers since the purchase of my Parsifal Encore (3rd Edition) from Goodwin's in Boston a couple years ago. I have to say that even when listening to the newer offerings, like the Ovation or the Leonore, I wouldn'... 
two way v. three way speakers
Sorry wasn't talking about speakers. Couldn't resist the connotation. 
Nordost Corporation v. Kristensen
I just hope he wasn't held down against his will and quantum tunneled! That holds a stiff penalty in Massachusetts, home of litigious innovation. I'll do a little google research. 
two way v. three way speakers
A good two way is usually easier to maintain and more WAF acceptable. That said a properly setup three way can add excitement, pleasure and even ecstasy to the relationship. You must take into account that a good three way is not easy to set up an... 
Verity vs B&W
Verity. No comparison in my opinion. Go listen to your 10 favorite tracks. Smoother, more detail, better mids, more dynamic. Hard to believe you are caught between these two speakers because they are pretty different. What else have you heard or w...

Larrybou, what have you learned from this thread? Any insights? 
Sexiest Speakers
I am very surprised that someone hasn't mentioned Ohm as the sexiest speaker. Shocked actually. Not my 100th choice either.

I love Verity. I've cycled through many of the above and they sound the best to me. Even up against the marketing machine companies like Wilson or Magico I think Verity shines. If I had real money I would probably own Rockports.I'm curious to lear... 
Apartment Drama
Tell them you have a hearing disability and would like to get a subwoofer. Bring them in and go on line and see if they like Wilson or Magico. If you throw a whole bunch of confusion at micro managers they tend to go away. Once they find out they ...
