    Hello all, we just received notice from ML that our pair of the Expression 13a is on the way to the store! DaVinci Media is one of the first if not the first to get a pair of these great new speakers. Let us know if you'd like to stop by for an audition. We already have the Renaissance 15a's...

    SUMMIT X in the House

    We've had 3 people come in for demos. No sales yet, although I am pretty sure one pair is selling from those demos. They are great with the 433, also used the MC2301s and personally I prefer the 433.

    No more dealer discounts?

    I am just quoting the State of Michigan's Att. General. I think he would have a handle on it probably better than anyone here. Link below: http://www.michigan.gov/ag/0,1607,7-164-34739_17343_18163-44650--,00.html

    No more dealer discounts?

    Its not an unheard of practice. Bose, Dyson are two I can think of off the top of my head. Here is what the state of Michigan's att. gen. says. Note the section highlighted in red. MIKE COX ATTORNEY GENERAL The Attorney General provides Consumer Alerts to inform the public of unfair...

    SUMMIT X in the House

    With regards to the SummitX vs Summit. The Summit when it was discontinued retailed for $11,000. This SummitX is $14,0000. I think the X is worth that difference. I also think if you were lucky enough to get a pair of Summits on closeout for less than half the cost of the new SummitX you...

    SUMMIT X in the House

    Sorry everyone, the week got away from me. I have spent some time now listening to the SummitX in both music and movies, and have also an AB comparison with Spire. Remember I am not a reviewer but here are my impressions. First, this is a fantastic speaker at the price. I have listened to...

    Critique My Inwalls Choices

    The Helos 100 is designed to be used as an LCR or Surround. It has a switch for spot or wide dispersion of the tweeter. Because of this it is actually more flexible for installations than the ticket. The ticket tweeter is also fixed so you cant move it to aim at the listener, the Helos can...

    SUMMIT X in the House

    I have been listening to the SummitX as it breaks in (view from my desk shown below, yes I am a lucky man :D). I am very impressed. I want to give them at least 50 hours before I put it head to head with our spires. That means Monday or Tuesday with my schedule. Anyone interested in coming...

    Critique My Inwalls Choices

    I would try to get all Voyages for Left, Right and Center, and passages for rear if within budget. If not Tickets are ok for rear, but dont skimp on the center. We have used the Voyage Passage combo in some pretty high end theaters and they sound fantastic. Make sure you use a Descent i with...

    SUMMIT X in the House

    Correct, not biwireable. Neither is CLX.

    SUMMIT X in the House

    The panels are exactly the same. The SummitX base is 40-50% more volume in my estimate, some of it is height much of it is depth. Spikes are taller though by at least an inch so that adds to it (see photo). We are powering them with a ML433 and they do sound very nice. Have a great presence...

    Please do. I hope to run them all weekend so next week we should be able to do a bit of critical listening.

    SUMMIT X in the House

    I wish we did but we do not. We never were able to compare the Spire to Summit either. :(

    SUMMIT X in the House

    First impressions is that they sound great. I want to give them time to break in though before they go head to head with Spires or CLX.
