What our customers are
saying:
....I could list at least 20 adjectives to describe
the staging, depth, transparency and width of this meticulously crafted
system, and still not completely describe the awe I experience when I sit
and listen to my music.

.......I
have found them to be the kind of speakers that unlock aspects of my
favorite LP's and discs that I truly had not heard before. The bass on the
Ushers is incredible, both in depth and focus. No mush or boom here, just
tight bass that makes listening to Earl Klugh or Bella Fleck a pure joy.
It is obvious that the crossover mods, reference grade resistors and
premium wiring wring every pleasant bit of sound out of what start out as
very good speakers.

.....
just wanted to let you know that after auditioning the Ultimate 708s at
your store this weekend, it gave me a new perspective of what is possible
from an already affordable speaker system. The level of realism and
transparency that was filling the room made it very hard for me to leave.
I most definitely want to come back for another listen after you finish
the new Reference 718s you are currently working on. Please let me know
when you are done with them so I can make arrangements to hear them before
you send them off to your customer.

........Overall,
I'd have to say you nailed the system with respect to what I was looking
for. I can't imagine that things could get much better,
honestly. The presentation is pretty much what I was
after...natural, balanced, unstressed yet articulate, no excessive sibilance,
excellent command of the lower registers which delve deeper than expected
in my setup with tightness verses flabbiness.

"......99
times out of 100 I would take the upgraded X-718s over stock. The stock
X-718s were a little more relaxed in a couple areas... which I liked. But
it was readily apparent that the upgraded parts in the modded X-718s took
resolution, imaging, soundstage placement, and bass detail to a new
level...".

".......We
compared the speakers first, upgraded vs. non-upgraded (Usher X-718's) and
everyone agreed it was an improvement. The specific things I heard were
better instrument and vocalist placement. Also, the bass was less 'wooly'
or warm... or just cleaner. The highs were more extended but not harsh.
Overall, a good investment. The nice thing about the mod is that it
doesn't lose the sound I liked about the 718's but makes them better. I
also think they need a wee bit more break-in...."
