for the Element Fire

I have not posted a review here on AA in two-and-a-half years. During that time, many Inmates have dropped out. Thus, many of you currently on AA may not know how a Luminator review works.

You click on the following links, preferably in order. Warning: they are NSFW. Because I cover the angles, facets, and features the "professional" media turn a blind eye to, these posts will arm you with enough information, so that you will know right away, if this product should be eliminated from your consideration. With this information, you can weigh your tastes, timeline, and budget, and decide if the product is worthy of an audition.

These links are all from my homepage, the Xanga blog. My close audio friends have already viewed them, provided me with feedback. In fact, the latter links reflect my readers' input. In general, I do not make any further posts to my reviews on AA. I respond to individuals via e-mail.

Product Weakness:	only available in two colors; not magnetically shielded; not for large rooms/spaces
Product Strengths:	no grille holes; easy to drive; no sweet spot; self-effacingly neutral; no midbass boom; easy to place; looks smaller than front face would indicate; will let you know exactly what is going on upstream; other than deep bass, sky's the limit
