NEW! "...sounded so honest and pure that I sank into my seat in complete relaxation.
Could I have found the Holy Grail?",
"These speakers allowed each element of each track to be fully represented.",
"The de Capos were seamless throughout their entire frequency range."
Reference 3a MM de Capo i loudspeakers as reviewed by John Brazier
NEW! " You can clearly hear the warmth and organic wooden
resonance of the Amati bass calling with a mournful sigh",
"...both are conduits of a kind of musical purity free of affectation",
"
Cut to the chase, I have never heard this heart rending lament portrayed more naturally than this."
Reference 3A Veena Loudspeaker as reviewed by Ron Nagle - Enjoy The Music.com
"In every other meaningful way, the Reference 3A MM de Capo i
is as unforgettable as your favorite song,.... ",
"This is one hell of a nice thing....",
"What accounts for that sort of performance?"
Stereophile/ Equipment Room/ Art Dudley
"I could easily live with this," ... 
"You'd have to be tied to your chair not to react to this,"...
"For the second recording in a row, Reine put aside her
   notebook and simply listened." ...
"You can hear that lineage with every note it plays."
UHF MAGAZINE
"For "only" $2,500/pr these piano black mini-monitors are the
   best value in their category in my opinion. Nothing I have heard
   over the past years comes close to being so harmonically right
   and offer great speed and detail."...
"there is a great deal of rightness to the sound of instruments." ...
"Here we have a modern day mini-monitor classic."
ENJOY THE MUSIC
"No crossover means being joined at the hip and when you lock
   onto an amp that does not have current limiting circuitry like the
   Edge's, you will be shocked. I'm talking snare drum in the chest." ...
"This is the speaker I've been looking for five years." ...
"Upon the first couple of passages heard with the MM DECAPO,
   I new this was a winner." ... 
"Value Rating: 5 STAR  Overall Rating: 5 STAR"
