Hahaha RSD are great speakers but not THAT great. They get +500 points for "bang for the buck" though ;)

I like mine. I read that awhile ago and again today, some exclusive and pricey company there on that list. CA&E has some good article's glad I joined the mailing list, it automatically hits my email every week or two.

yeah! they should have 2 or 3 categories for components, it's not fair to put $100 comps against $3k comps, of course the rsd's are gonna be unbeatable value for money, it's diminishing returns, you have to pay to get that last 10% performance..

I have not heard a bad thing about them except maye the price depending on what you consider resonable for a good set of speaks.

AVI speakers were hand built in Canada right? I used to work for a dealer that sold AVI.


Excellent speakers

That's so cool that the rsd 12 can actually compete with those other subs. It makes you wonder why they are so much more expensive?
