Re: 340SE Initial Impressions: The Democratization of High-End Sound Reproduction
Just dropping by to see what's new, and wanted to note that I still LOVE these puppies.
My Ascends are currently being driven by this, FYI. I built it myself in 2006 when Kevin first released them.
Interestingly, the cross-post of this review I did on AVSForum was apparently deleted. That flamewar was epic. Remember that, Curtis? Yeesh.
Anyway, good sound to all.
Cheers,
Adam

Adam,
I only wish you weren't so ambivalent ;-).
Just wait to those puppies break in a little. I noticed a significant improvement after a few weeks.
We had a party last week and I showed our guests our new home theater. One of our guest had gone to the local big box and asked for top of the line. They sold her some speakers from a long standing company known for their large corner speakers that use horn drivers. I'm sure she spent more on speakers than I did.
After watching some clips and listening to a little music, her response was: "OK, now I have a serious case of speaker envy!"

Oh they're quite broken in...if you scroll up again you'll note that post was made in February 2006 :-D. I was just stopping by to perform thread necromancy and say I still love 'em, especially with the amp that costs decidedly more than the speakers :-).
Glad you're wow-ing the neighbors. I have steered many people to David's wonderful creations over these few years and will continue to do so.
Cheers,
Adam
