THX What does/did it mean for you?

[brian-w]

I tried to search, so I hope this is not an all together duplicate conversation. THX is not “free” and it does have specific meaning/s. The conversation is what did it mean for you? Did it help your decision? Perhaps guide you to Arendal in the first place? Did it impact your perception (pre audition/listen) of the speaker for music or movies? Did Ultra vs Dominus vs Select matter in your search process? I suppose my tech question in the conversation is: why are the 1723 towers not Dominus rated? I own the 1723, love them! My room is larger, really just outside the Ultra room size category and into Dominus. So, my room size and the tower sensitivity with power handling is part of what drove me to buy/try the largest speakers from Arendal. What are your thoughts on the overall topic?

I used a teufel system 4 thx setup for a long time, now i have Arendal 1961 speakers without

the thx rating but they sound way better.

Teufel is very good for the money, but Arendal is on another price tier.
