Not planning on buying at this time, but I'm off to audition a pair of Paradigm Founder 100Fs tomorrow. They're finally on the floor at a shop that's within a reasonable travel distance.

Excellent speakers. Hope you get a good deal when you’re ready to buy.

Honestly, my old Studio 100 V2s seem like they are sounding better than ever these days with the various other newer equipment I've picked up in the last few years. They're also 25 years old though. I keep waiting for a driver to crack/tear or something like that. Otherwise I probably wouldn't even be looking. The 100Fs seem like a natural choice to look at as something that might step in to replace them and I think they also look fantastic on the aesthetic side. If they sound as good as they look, I will surely be torn about buying or not.

Today, via UPS, I received Dayton Audio Classic B40 speakers, which sound great for being so small. Peace and goodwill.

They are beautiful. I like the midnight cherry. The black walnut also looks Beautiful. I like wood veneers.

Well... Despite my intentions, a pair of these will be making their way into my living room system.

Not sure on the date of arrival, but probably not that long.

Halloween is nigh...

Smitizen (German); a huge lump of silicon (nearly Special Effects quality)...
As soon as I figure out the eyes I'll post another pic...

Received my extra long throw, 8", replacement woofers from HUMAN speakers;

Picked up a copy of Kraven, The Hunter; because I am experiencing movie withdrawal.

Surprisingly good!
Blu-Ray; because I am becoming penurious in my dotage...

Enjoy!

Just picked up the MoFi SourcePoint 888s after months of research. Setup was more involved than I expected, they're picky about positioning and really need some room to breathe, but once dialed in they sound amazing. Moving them around was tough though, they weigh around 96 pounds each. I tried them out with a friend's subwoofer, and now the next thing on my list is a good sub. Open to recommendations . PS. I put together a review of the 888s if you want to hear my thoughts.

Congrats. These were another entry on my shortlist of speakers for my living room but they are pretty much impossible for me to audition without getting on a plane.
