Well, its like this.
Marten has just come out with their new Momento speakers. We want to try them here. We want to try them here for a, shall we say, extended period of time.
We *could* put them downstairs I guess, in front of the stairwell.
But…
What we really want to do is put them upstairs. But the Coltrane Supremes are there, right?
So what we want to do… is to sell the Supremes to a [soon to be deliriously happy] audiophile and put the Momentos up in the main room.
We think we can get Momentos here by Christmas – so we are motivated to do this quickly.
So all you who have been poking around looking at these, which are the – and I can still say it because it is unfortunately still true: the only competent speaker (and the most capable) made today – this is your chance.
If you look at linearity of response (across frequency, micro-, midi- and macro-dynamics, harmonic, and SPL ranges), drivaeability, ease of in-room placement and adjustment – everything. Nothing even comes close.
The Marten Coltrane Supremes
And, for you fans, we WILL be getting a new pair of Supremes again. Access to unlimited, audiophile-quality bass is addictive [a key point, most other big speaker bass is not audiophile quality, its just loud]. And the 2.5 inch diamond midrange… well… hmmmm… this seemed like a good and logical idea for the store when we talked about it a few weeks ago…. and we really *are* a store, we can’t just keep these here forever… can we?
Well, Neli is going smack me upside the head [several times no doubt] but I think we do need to play with the Momentos some here and learn exactly what they can do. We are Audio Federation. We are the experts. This is what we do, right? Right??
So our precious Supremes are now available at a reasonable price [well, not completely reasonable. But more reasonable]. For those of you who desire the best, the best just might finally be within your reach.
