Description

System has grown in complexity of late (8/06) however the sound quality has grown as well. Pipedream reference 18's have taken the place of the Aerial 20t's. The "pipes" have a presence not many speakers can match, and give me the big sound I crave. The 4 18" woofers are amazingly fast, tight and tuneful. Bass dynamics and resolution are fantastic.

I'm not visiting your system page again until you bring Nipper back. I'm reporting you to the SPCA. You will have to explain to them what you did with him.

Your system is waaay too cool. Congrats.

I don't want to be a copycat, but I just have to have one of those RCA "his master's voice" dogs. Where can I get one?

Paul, you were once an Infinity Beta owner. How do they differ from the Pipedreams?
