I can't afford it either for now, even used. This doesn't mean that I am not interested. Amp and analog threads often do discuss high level equipment.

There is no need for definition, when you hear it you know it. I like this " I am an arrogant prick " line. Choice of speakers is very personal so the discussion would also become very personal. Of all elements of the chain speakers are the closest to instruments and in fact are the easiest to evaluate. You don't need a lot of time to know. As for the what'sbest forum, I don't participate there but read some from time to time. The last time I read about Echole cables. It also appears that many people here view this forum as a free consulting service. I think, it is only part of it and not the most important part. |
An example of real speakers. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/full-range-worlds-best-tweeter-2017-09-01-speakers |
I am sure I could try so many fine speakers. This is a general topic thread. And yes, one of the traits of fine speakers is that they are not boring. To be a little poetic - speakers must have 'soul' not just particular sound signature. They are not only devices, they are 'instruments' designed to reproduce the sound of all other instruments. This is a monumental task to accoplish. Building fine amp or turntable etc. looks like elementary school project compared to this. |
The last interesting speaker thread was about vintage speakers and speaker technology advances, or as some thought the lack of them. Different impressions, different angles, different points of view. Most old guard members stopped posting here or appear very rarely. They have a lot to say but lost interest. |
