Glad to know that some of y'all are hearing good things from the Scumnico. I've been downplaying my enthusiasm and also playing "Devil's advocate" with in justifiying the purchase of this pricier speaker. It's great to listen to other's opinions.
The ultimate speaker test will be when I get the next chance to participate in one of my good buddy's incredibly loud jamfests. Don't know when that will be because of the coronavirus situation.
And yeah, I'm a fan of Scumback Speakers products and support. Owner Jim Seavall is a pleasure to deal with, and his Scumback website provides a recommendations questionnaire page to help you get setup with the best speaker he has for you. I now have four Scumback speakers!
