$55 on ebay Sir Z. Get your new speakers yet?
------------------------------------------------------------------

The replacement speaker/tweeter for Sound Appeal is due Friday.

The IntelliTouch EOS is due on Mon (for some reason, not as quick),
It is coming from San Diego. It is a smaller speaker, yet it is heavier
than the Sound Appeal.

Well The IntelliTouch speakers came early - however, I could not resist
and had to open them up and give them a test run today!!

I do not have patience and resistance like some people!!!

All I can say is mercy, where was the marketing team - these things are
nice - they are built better than the original Paradigm Atom and Titan,
and the original PSB Alpha - I believe these speakers sold for a around
only $100 a pair. They must have been pushing them with their Intellitouch
EOS wireless converge AMP transmitter.

What is nice, is that there is no hogwash in the marketing specs. They
tell that they are 4 ohms and lower sensitivity and give a -3db at 70 hz.

Still early - however, I like them better than the Sound Appeal, Micca 42x
Pioneer BS22, Infinity Primus - and entry level JBL, plus those things from
Polk, Klipsch etc;

I finally was able to put the new tweeter in the Sound Appeal - and will
test it out later - hard to take the EOS down right now.

The hobby can be fun - if one does open their speakers and hook them up.

No! - no wireless kit was included - the bookshelf speakers were sold as
an option/add on, with the wireless system. They can be used as stereo,
Home Theater or desktop use. They have regular 5-way binding post.

They are not being sold regular on Ebay for $19.99 - just a special find
for me when I was surfing - they did cost me $24 shipping.

The cheapest at the moment is $99 a pair, with $6.99 shipping.

Damn got excited there for a sec. Waiting for your 3 sets writeup and hopefully some pics(borrow a camera for Pete's sake) to go along. I need to unbox my stuff first.

Is that a hint that you are happy.

Glad you got them - I will be looking for your take on them.
Enjoy the new audio adventure.

So far I'm very happy with them.

Thanks! I'm glad I got them too.

Like this aRtlife, .

You open the box and there is a speaker, or two, inside.

I've forgotten who kept calling you artlife. Bryceo?

No NAD for me. I'm' a little afraid to tell you why

And I am happy with these IntelliTouch EOS ones. These are not built
like some lower cost retail speakers, they have the build and sound of
some more expensive speakers. They can sit and dance with the popular
Cambridge S30 and some others.

However do not tell Afterlife2 - he seems to be somewhat content with
brown boxes!

Sometimes you have to excersise the brain/mind.

I may buy one of them selfie things some day.

Thanks to BSA, picked up an Ooma with wireless adapter. Also got the HD2 handset to go with it.

Also picked up a hydroflask to replace a cracked and worn out UA water bottle.

Finally, made a bid on a little something and the bid was accepted. Got a great price on it.

GEEEEEEESSSSSHHHHHHH.... I moved the center. I promise!

I'm going on 8-9 years(?) with my Ooma and it still works like new. A very good buy for $89.00!

I'm going to look into those bottles.

Won off Ebay for $56.00 - Yamaha NX-E800 speakers.
This completes my 3-ring unique budget speaker sets.
They do have a 12 db crossover on woofer and tweeter.
Plus, they should have some cross bracing inside.

The Yamaha have arrived - and I am in the early stages of listening.
However, they seem to fall short of the over-built and and the over
designed/engineered IntelliTouch EOS passive bookshelf speakers.
They for me, are even better than my former favorite budget friendly
Cambridge S30 speakers. I am still in some state of shock, as they
only sold for $100 a pair when they came out.
