|  Look at these, why are they not so popular, it looks as if you get tremendous value for money, but this make seems ignored, £2500 seems good value compared to other speakers. Hands up who has heard these or other Usher speakers, I'd like a few opinions. |

| Yes they do look similar, but not in sound I don't think. Love to hear more. I must get my bum in to gear. |

| They're certainly pretty enough. It's all a question of how good they are in the listening... |

| Wide exposure in all the glossy magazines i browse through in Smiths,so the marketing is widespread and they look luxurious but i havent come across anyone who owns a pair-are they Taiwanese? |

| They are made in Taiwan, do they get much press Jilly? you never see them here. I've seen a few models in the flesh and the fit and finish is simply superb. |

| Yes usually they appear full page and glossy in the more upmarket hi-fi magazines,so they are pitched i would imagine at the bigger budget consumer-very tasty image |

| Even though their entry level products are highly affordable. I don't find them over priced, they offer a lot considering what they cost. |

| I notice Usher use beryllium in their top tweeters, is that a safe material? |

| The Beryllium is only toxic during the production stage (coating the tweeters) but it's safe as a final end user product. But I wouldn't recommend eating them. |

| Beryllium is only toxic in particle form. |

| They look well feed to me, and least they have a job, and the place is clean, why should they complain? |
