Frans; You're hired! We didn't review the SR6003. We did review the SR6004 and I found the crosstalk performance to be good but not great as you can see in my review: http://www.audioholics.com/reviews/receivers/marantz-sr6004-1/sr6004-measurements I personally like to see at least...

I'm as excited with anticipation of the results as you guys are. We have some heavy hitters in this shootout!

Paul has tested all but the RBH sub which is due to arrive to him early next week. I am hopeful to get everything posted before XMAS but I hope by saying that it doesn't bite me in the butt if we slip schedule. :eek:

RE: Earthquake Issue I wanted to let everyone know the Earthquake issue has been resolved. We learned a lot from this situation about how emails can be a very impersonal way to communicate intent and thought. We will revisit a review with Earthquake at a later date. I am very pleased to be...

Jakeman; I was going to let this issue settle down but now I see the Axiom crowd wants to know more. Here is a PM Alan Lofft has been sending to readers inquiring why Axiom won't submit products to our shootouts. Since Alan Lofft is one of Axiom's most trusted employees, its safe to assume...

Good suggestions about sponsored shootouts but in reality no company wants to sponsor something that may reflect badly on another. This is a very small industry and everyone is connected in one way or another. The reality is we will likely just stick to discrete product reviews for everyone...

This saddens me that Ian chose to be less than honest about this situation, especially since I took the high road and didn't mention Axiom by name in my article. I was simply venting manufacturer issues we've dealt with in the past when attempting to organize product shootouts. I have email...

Relax guys I forgot to add Salk to that list. I will update it NOW :eek:

I thought it also worth mentioning that the manufacturers in this list that we are currently testing have NEVER tried to sway our test results or methodologies in testing. IMHO this speaks volumes about their integrity, trust in their products and trust in us to write a fair assessment of their...

Update on the Sub Shootout HSU has been added and tested without incident. Funkywaves had to submit a more powerful amp as their stock amp isn't powerful enough for such a high mass driver to hit the CEA distortion limits. Rhymik sub has a finish issue that showed up when exposed to...

agreed. My dad spent over a year on the frontlines of the N.Korean war, one of the most brutal wars in our history. He survived it and managed to raise 5 kids and is still ticking at 80 years old! Go Dad!

Aussie Pink Floyd rocks. I saw them in Clearwater to a sold out Ruth Eckerd Hall. People were offering me 3x the face value of my tickets. They were that good!

I have no desire for litigation which is why I let this go despite the fact we would likely have won due for the same reason CR beat Bose. Years ago I actually gave Earthquake the benefit of a doubt when one of our forum members claimed their Earthquake amp caused their house to go on fire...

RE: Earthquake Sound After much deliberation, we have decided NOT to publish our review of the Earthquake Sound MKVI-15BLK. Under legal threat, Earthquake Sound insisted that we NOT review their product because they disagreed with our testing methodology despite the fact we fully disclosed it...

Anyone have contact info for Ikka? Seems like he would do a great job doing product reviews for us if he would be interested.

Actually the RBH model utilizes their new SX cabinet, new long excursion 12" driver and new 500 watt amp. Its still in prototype phase and Paul is expecting to get a sample in two weeks. I need to update the model# once they tell me what it is :)

It's a financial loss to us since I had to pay Paul for his efforts as he already tested this product. It's a time loss to Paul as he could have been testing other products for us. It's also a time loss to me to deal with this very insulting rude individual. There are losses but I don't...

Yes, this is the updated list of entrees for our subwoofer shootout: * RBH Sound 12-SE * Rythmik FV15HP * Funkywaves FW12.X_SA1000_Brindle * SV Sound PB12-Plus * Salk Sound Song Sub * HSU VTF-15H

Epik was waiting on a new product development as well. Next round....

Paradigm or Klipsch wouldn't waste their time on nonsense like this. They are a legitimately run organizations with excellent product distribution.
