[QUOTE="Straegen, post: 3178759, member: 578770"] I simply misunderstood your point then. I read that to mean it is based on several factors excluding xref. My point is that xref is as important if not more so than most other factors with the possible exception of power handling. I wasn't trying to restate your arguement. I am not adverse to hearing where I am wrong especially if it stays civil. I am not stating fact. I am simply stating my opinon on the matter. I did not call into question your credentials, you called out mine. I was just pointing out I have been around a long time, I have done several installs and I have competed successfully. I even prefaced this with I am no expert. Chill a little... I wasn't attacking you. You told me I was either half educated or wasn't clear. I was making the point that I am not half educated and we simply don't agree on my advice which is fine. You are correct that spending 10k on a system doesn't mean you are an expert but it does mean that I have actually heard a lot of the speakers suggested and furthers that I might know what I am talking about (you don't half *** those kinds of installs which was namely a Dynaudio with Helix amps setup).... and before you get upset again I am not saying you haven't heard them and I am not saying you don't know what you are talking about and I am certainly not saying you half *** installs. Again just making my point I am not half educated. Me stating this was to make that point. BTW, this wasn't pointed at you just a general statement. I left competition when DEI started gobbling up some good companies and car audio took a backseat to car video. Not saying I am a purist, these days I am more of a value for the dollar kind of guy. Again I wasn't attacking you and I am not trying to insult you. Just backing up my own statements whether you agree or disagree (hopefully respectfully). [/QUOTE]
