[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 80798, member: 126"] Re: Fulcrum Acoustics New Active Powered FA Series Review Interesting... Is the Presonus designed to deliver lower performance, or is your judgement that is a consequence of where it is assembled? Performance numbers won't lie... I would prefer my speaker company to do more than just buy a design from good outside engineers and contract them built offshore. While that sure seems better than not using a design from good engineers, building them expensively, and expecting to magically gain market share. There needs to be some merchandising benefit to justify a products success. They appear to be targeting "good for less". The good design, with low cost assembly, is a well proved business model, while it still requires discipline in the component sourcing, and manufacturing process management, not trivial for non-speaker guys, managing activity thousands of miles away.
