Mapleshade records made some pretty profound statements on the 3.1's in their latest Winter '08 catalog. First of all, their CD's are some of the best recorded and revealing, but not exactly the best artists, IMO. So they are very credible in their recording practices. Haven't used any of their wires or accessories so no opinion there. They indicate that the Gallo's are their reference studio monitors and that there are no under $20K speakers they prefer. In fact after some comparison, they go on to say that they put to shame JMLabs Utopias, Wilson WATT/Puppies, Sonus Faber Amatis, and B&W 800 Ds. I'd be curious to hear from anyone who has made comparison with one of the above mentioned speakers.
