Well said young Ivor, or to put it another way you don't need to be there Simon just leave a key under the mat and a nice bottle of wine decanting in the man cave

If I charge you all a fiver in I could nearly pay for the speakers outright.

Of course you can all come along and hear them, except if they sound like s**t when I get them, in which case I'll be saying nothing and trying to quietly sell them to Pearse.

Yes I could see Pearse being swayed by them but can't see them sounding as you are suggesting hence I expect they will reside for a long time in Chez Simon. I hope the Graafs work well with them my hunch is they will.
