"that brought back memories of my IRS Beta days"
The Betas were... Odd somehow. Every time I heard the IRS's I lusted for them but I've never in my life had a house remotely large enough to contain them (much to the relief of my pocket book). But the Betas were much more fittable and the debt wouldn't have been endless, however they just never sounded "right" to me. You'd think they would sound the same at moderate levels at least in the midrange but for me they didn't have IT. Every time I ran across them I tried my damnedest to like them but to no avail.
Today I still use Renaissance 90's and am happy to say that they don't sound like much. I think a lot of that is due to some unusually thoughtful design touches to minimize near-field refraction.
Regards, Rick
