Hi Steve, I am sorry you took my post as a "pissing" contest. I too have heard the A.G.s many times (all 3 models). They are "wonderfull" speakers, the trios are definately world class (but, brutally expensive). I have wanted to buy them many, many times but, never have been moved enough to do so. The A.G.s play bigger, obviously more bass, and are totally cool looking. Yes, they have a giant sound stage and do all the hifi tricks in spades (actually better than the Beauhorns). This is why I kept coming back. At the end of the day though, their sound always seemed mehanical and unnatural. All speakers "do" have a sound/color, we must choose our posion carefully. I find the Beauhorns presentation much more natural and believable. I too am glad you love your A.G.s. One of the great things in life is there are no absolutes. Jeffrey
Follow Ups:
Hey Jeffrey,Let me state it as clearly as I can. If the Avantgarde loudspeakers you heard sounded mechanical and unnatural in any way, they were incorrectly set up or matched to inappropriate components. Period.
I'm sure you heard what you heard but I'm afraid you are attributing its cause incorrectly.

Steve, this is about fun, lighten up, enjoy "your" speakers! Jeffrey
