The picture in the ad shows a lamp setting on the speaker.  I bet they are beat.

Damnit.  Damnit Damnit Damnit!!  I simply don't have room for full-size floor speakers in the new house.  Hmmmm...maybe it's time to finish the basement.  Even though it has a low ceiling (~7'), there's an awful lot of room down there...

I think saying they're not therepeutic is selling them a little short.... sheeit, even my heresyII's are therepeutic!!!!   Those things would be like having Freud as your therapist!  :lol:
Tickets are dead to me.  Except the ones I have, don't have, and lost.  Not to mention the ones you have, don't have, and lost.   And the ones that other dude has, doesn't have, and lost.  Let me know if you need some tickets, I'm happy to oblige.

Trust me, I have a hot tub & it isn't all it's cracked up to be. I have been in the new house for 9 months & not ONE orgy yet! I even went out & bought a new orgy robe just in case  ;D

I was thinking more along the lines of a sore back.
I suppose I could use the Stereophile LF warbles and lean against a Cornwall    ;D

I have heard some folks speak of horngasms.

Besides price, is there a significant difference between Gen I and Gen III in terms of sound?

Working on selling the 483's. My old stinky dog is still class A so no upgrade needed there. ;)
