Nick B:
Thanks, Hal. Quite interesting. I’ve never owned and PS products, although I used to watch Paul’s videos.

GDHAL:
You're welcome, Nick.

I don't own any of their gear or have any affiliation with them. There's a fellow in the Audio Syndrome audio club (well, now defunct audio club) who has one of their power stations. I'm reading good reviews about their phono preamp. Also, like you, I do watch on occasion Paul McGowan videos, who I often - but not always - agree with when he opines.

PS audio did a spectacular (my opinion) video of their new FR30 speakers. I never saw or heard them but their marketing (I guess that's what it would be called) video of it is pretty amazing.

Best.

Hal

The PS Audio FR30 ($30,000.00) loudspeakers pale in comparison to GR Research NXtremes + their open baffle subs at easily a third of the price.  Granted, the GR speakers are DIY, but flat packs are available that anyone with a knife, fork and some glue could assemble.  Even their NXotica + subs (~ $5500.00) will kick those $30K speakers ass.  FR flat from 18Hz to 24K +/- 1.5dB and low frequency response that is absolutely coloration free and pant leg shaking that does not overload a room.

Stunning.  Absolutely stunning. 

Oh, yeah.  I forgot.  8WPC is more than enough, but 20 will kill you.  Folsom's 7293 amplifier is a match made in Heaven.  My personal favorite is single ended 300B amps.  Nuthin' but music and kick ass lows!

I’m liking Jay’s videos more. He did a great interview with the head and designer of Allnic. A great look into a brilliant designer. This video with Danny is also excellent. I had no idea Danny ran such a big operation. I sure would like to hear his speakers one of these days. As to that Folsom amp, I think the boards were no longer available when I wanted one. Oh well…..
