They demonstrated the TRIOs out of phase?! That must have been pretty embarrassing. It wouldn’t surprise me if that’s what was wrong with the ones I heard.Your comments on the raw enjoyment factor produced by UNOs vs. TRIOs are interesting; maybe true audio happiness depends on never hearing anything better than what you already have. I’ve been wondering how one could improve on the DUOs, but the only thing I’ve heard better so far has been an over-the-top Altec setup in Virginia. (That, and of course Beauhorn Virtuosos with no subwoofer or supertweeters and driven by mediocre electronics.)
The guys at Walrus said you didn’t reveal your standing as a leading Avantgarde maven when you visited their shop—that’s a shame, because the DUO setup upstairs is pretty perfunctory, mostly just an eye-catcher for people walking by. Next time you’re in town let me know if you want to hear how the DUOs cope with a mere 2-1/2 watts.
