And yet here we are...

Don't get mad, just ribbing you a bit, there I don't dismiss anything out of hand without hearing it first. But yes, I DO like to wait and see what gets past the first blush of enthusiasm before I take the opinion as face value...

Any self powered speaker, if designed decently, will sound pretty darn good up to a point. It is how high that point is that makes the difference. Ever take a piece of stage gear home, and then plug into it without turning it down from the night before? You shake your head and go 'I can't believe I needed it that loud!'... If you don't test gear flat out, you never really know whether it cuts it, live, or not...


Again you confuse humility with talent. What do you mean by "play". Not many Arranegr players "play" a whole lot. thats why they play them.

I don't get mad. I can dish it AND TAKE IT...

I know many "Pro " players who can't read a note. What does that make them? You get paid to play you are a pro? You sell your work on CD you are a Pro? what is a Pro? What is a "player"? Does a "player" ever really "play" when playing an Arranger? Ah never ending questions.

Even I "the non player" would not "play" out for money using on a $200 10" Powered Speaker except as monitors.
Everyone loves what they "just" bought. I would use something awhile time before gushing over it too much. When the afterglow of a new purchase is gone the arts show up.

I personally don't have to hear them. Experience is a good teacher. You get what you pay for. That's a lesson that is very hard to learn and rarely fails to prove itself again and again.
