Greg,
I have refrained from sending
you my thanks for the wonderful system you have made for me. Now
in 2003 it is time I shared my joy with you and your prospective
customers. My audio budget is not as generous as the sounds of
your premium products but for the mid-range customer (such as
myself) you have delivered a top-range product.
For the record I have Eclipse main speakers, a CF15 sub/midchannel
combination and a pair of E1 (dipole) effect speakers. They are
now well
broken in and are a fundamental part of my life! I have a sound
and movie experience that is the envy of my every guest. The clarity,
breadth and
depth of your speakers are a revelation and a joy every single
day. I have revelled in every moment of listening and not regretted
a single purchase.
Your helpfulness, generosity and assistance in setup deserve as
much praise as your speakers because it is not as common in HiFi
as it should be. I could not be any happier with the quality of
the sound, the quality of the product or the quality of service
that has come through dealing with you (and your lovely wife).
I hope to be your customer as long as you produce equipment and
to upgrade to even finer examples of your products as funds permit.
To you I give my profound thanks, to your prospective clients
I have but a single dire warning - Greg's products are so fine
that they will reveal
every other component within your system for better, or for worse.
After auditioning several mid-range amplifiers I will be returning
to get one or
two of those Consonance boxes from you shortly. Best wishes for
the new year.

Dear Greg
I wish you could
hear what I am listening to. I have just connected the Eclipses
to the system and I am playing Yo-yo Ma's 'Cello Suites Inspired
By Bach' CD. The sound is absolute heaven - I can't believe the
clarity and beauty of what is filling the house.
My mother was a cello player and teacher, and our family home
was always alive with her playing or listening to some piece of
classical music. Between you and Kostas (Kostas Metaxas from
Metaxas Audio Systems) your crafts have vastly improved the
listening experience and have recreated wonderful memories for
me, for which I will be eternally grateful.
I was also remiss in only commenting on the sound of the speakers
and made no reference to the construction and finish of the Eclipses
both of which match the quality of the audio. The cabinets really
do look superb and fit perfectly with our interior.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Best regards
Ross Palmer

Hi Greg,
Just thought I would let you know how satisfied we are with our F4, subwoofer and centre speaker combination. The erformance of these speakers are incredible with awesome detail. We never heard the shell casings hit the floor in Total Recall until we fired up the Osborn F4's. Our home movie library has never sounded so dynamic and realistic, no need to go to the movie theatre any more that's for sure. In a word, stunning!
As to our Eclipse II speakers I can only say I am still in love with them, they inspire us to listen to music constantly. My wife and I listen to everything from Jazz to classical, to Rock and Roll and so on. Coupled with the Redgum RG120 amplifier, Sony XA3ES CD player and your fine speaker cable the detail literally envelopes the listener and the bass, oh that bass just knocks your socks off. After 4 years of ownership I can honestly say they are one of our dearest possessions. A comment made to me recently by a family friend who upon listening to Bachs Toccata and Fugue in d Minor through the Eclipse II, said, and I quote, "I have never heard an organ sound like that before, it's like you are right there in the Cathedral, it sent a tingle down my spine." end quote.
What more can I say!
Hope you're selling lots of speakers Greg and
keep up the good work of producing some of the worlds finest speakers,
if
not the very best.
