I have a set of Bozak Concert Grands that make anything made today

Klipsch Cornwall 2s.

Anything less would be uncivilized.

Piffle. I'll put my Bozak's up against anything.

I used to have a set of the original Cornwalls, but they were too darn
big for the living room.

They were big weren't they? Damn...

One of the biggest I've ever seen was a demonstrator speaker made by
JBL. It was one piece stereo speaker made out of maple - 12 foot
long, four high and if I had to describe it, it looked like a coffee
table overdone on steroids.

The other was a set of custom Acoustic Research speakers in a artsy
fartsy movie theater located in Metarie, LA - this was back in the
early '70s. Damn things took up an entire wall.

If you ever get a chance, audition a setup that includes speakers by Aerial
Acoustics, a little know high end speaker manufacturer up in Wilmington.
(not to be confused with "Ariel" speakers). They require a good amp - your
Macs would do just fine.

They offer quite a range - both in performance and price. I installed a
setup last winter in Florida, originally intended to be the sound system for
a kick-ass home theater room, but now I usually go in just to listen to
music.

I'll check them out - they sure look interesting.

Thanks.
