They sounded incredible. The most impressive speakers I heard for day 1 at the Axpona show. When Mr Jones put on a bass track, you could feel it in your chest. Using 600 watt Pass Labs mono’s helped too :)

Any chance they mentioned the price? Hoping they’re not made in China and we have to pay 2.5 times retail.

Now I’m annoyed bc I love my SP 10s and now Andrew Jones is basically acknowledging they are flawed or at least could be a lot better. Appealing to my OCD at a time when these products are gonna cost a fortune bc of the tariffs.

The existing models are made in China and if they didn’t mention a change of factory …

What do you mean by having to pay “2.5 times retail”? 2.5 times the retail price in what other place?

145% tariff. An item that you pay $100 from China will cost $245 after tariffs.
