The NINES

 Stereophile 6moons 07  

"(The Nines) had more drama and sheer humanity than I've ever heard from such an outwardly conventional loudspeaker" Art Dudley, Stereophile Magazine December 07

"...these were the most outstanding speakers I'd ever heard in my home. I'm not letting go of these handsome cherry wood boxes."Mike Quinn, JazzTimes February 2008

"When John DeVore delivered my speakers, he said "I'll bring the shipping boxes later." Don't bother John, I'm at the end of my speaker quest. The Nines won't be leaving and I got no room for empty boxes..." Ken Micallef, 6moons July 2007

"At the risk of sounding pretentious with such a lead-out, John DeVore isn't getting this pair back."Srajan Ebaen, 6moons July 2007

"...a superior grip on the music, an ability to really focus my attention into that magical space between the speakers, so that music is all that exists - an ultimate respect for the music." Stephen Mejias, Stereophile.com
