Age, old age... no wait. Neli, I blame it on Neli. :-) The ODIN power cord was announced here about two weeks ago... about two days before your post! We are trying to rearrange our purchases here to get a couple in so we can throw them on a couple of amps. But you know how it is... The list of things we want to get is never shorter than our arms :-) It is about $11K for a 4 foot cord here in the land of $4/gallon gasoline. Take care, Mike Hi Arshad,

Cheers, Arshad Hiya Mike,

[The No. 1 and Valhalla are very much at the same level with respect to many attributes]. Hope that helps explain my scribblings a little. We need to do that shootout! Thanks, Mike Hi Arshad,

Is that right , always thought it to be the other way around. Hi,

They have the ALNICO magnets and there is no HE ALNICO woofer (Yet). The SEC Sigs are 95.5dB/w/m sensitive whereas the HE models are 97.8. Best, Dave Mike,

That is if I can get up your driveway this time of year? :-) Let me know when your ready and we can work out a day. But I better rest up for it. ;-) Should be fun! Hi Mike and Neli,

Oops, yesterday got away from us. We rebuilt our consulting website yesterday. The blog there still looks like poop - but.... So we didn't get to the ELROD shootout (doh!) and today we had an audition of the Kharmas... [we are trying to help someone sell their 1 year old 3.2 speakers]. Thanks so much for offering to bring up the CDSA! I think we may be taking you up on your kindness - the Longmont gentleman is just going to order the new transport site unheard - so you better start resting up, these shootouts are hard work... Wiggle the left ear. Now wiggle the right... :-) Take care, Mike. Hi Steve!
