The problem with Magicos
Where is EBM when you need him? I would have sworn he had sirens and flashing lights in his home when ever anyone mentioned Magico in a post. I believe he gets an electric shock when something less than gushing is said about them.

Don't forget the seniors with hearing loss who may be best suited for actives firing directly into the face. Profoundly ignorant doesn't even begin to describe this comment.I owned the passive version of the active speaker I currently own (Leg...

Steve is a veteran and is to be respected. Does that mean his motives can't be questioned? That someone can't disagree with him? He had a conclusion already developed and created his arguments to fit his conclusion. His conclusion was not based...

New game with active speakers
I agree about the Meadowlark website. It is not very good. The information is in there in respect to design, but you have to dig around for it. I can't say for sure, but I believe he is looking to stay small and not get into the dealer network, et... 
New game with active speakers
Meadowlark Audio is back up and running and they are going active for the most part. They are again making speakers and all of them are active. They do not build passive speakers any more. They look awesome, BTW. With a designer as talented as ... 
Preamp recommendation
You completely missed the point sunshine, but it doesn't surprise me. The person you put on blast this morning wasn't promoting his product either,. He was discussing a class of product. Kind of like what you are doing here. That didn't stop you f... 
Preamp recommendation
