"American Sound" Speakers


There's a lot of discussion about and descriptions of the 'British/BBC' sound here, and I'm pretty clear on what that is. As a Rega owner, and fan of Avalon and Harbeth, it's safe to say that this is my preferred sound at my current stage of development.

But what comprises the "American Sound?" What are some example brands or specific speakers that exemplify this sound?

I believe the time of "British Sound" has come and gone. As technology improves we all are listening to more accurate. There certainly isn't a Chinese, Danish, Japanese or German sound. That laid back mid range still exist and we think of that as British, but today, the Brits as the Chinese and Americans and most others are getting better and better at being accurate. Of course there will always be exceptions and I am speaking in terms of audiophile equiptment, but we have all gotten better. Good Listening, Tim
