Huh? Not sure what you are referring to ... ?

Happy to report I cannot confirm this. :)

I'm still being advised mid-July shipment from KY warehouse **however** with the understanding the date is fluid. :unsure:

I do agree the wait is agonizing :pinch:

I think it fair to say that most current customers of GoldenEar Technology understand and realize the outstanding value GET brings to the table. Value in this context considers price, quality, and alternatives.

GET markets the powered speakers as being comparable in value to speakers costing 5 to 10 times as much. In fact, Al indicates “It’s often said that GoldenEar speakers sound as good as, if not better than, models costing 10 times as much.”

Without him even mentioning the particular model he is comparing the Reference to, the take away for me as the reader is that he is finding the 85K speakers preferable and “better”. He is merely “surprised at how well the Reference compared” and felt the characteristics of the Reference “were in evidence” in comparison. To me as the reader, he simply is not conveying that **he** believe the Reference sounds as good as, if not better than, models costing 10 times as much.

And what exactly does “überexpensive” mean? This is somewhat flippant in my opinion.

I think maybe you should skip the mainstream press ... it doesn't agree with you. :)

Does anyone know how much the glossy cabinet on the Reference adds to the price? One of the big selling points for my wife was the move from the sock look to a beautifully finished cabinet.
