Salk Speakers - Opinions & Advice?


This past weekend I went to Karma Fest in Livonia, Michigan, and saw so many beautiful speakers in the Salk Signature Sound, I didn't know where to start. Since I live quite close to the company, I'll head up there for a private audition. However, after going through the A'gon threads addressing Salk speakers, I still don't have a real idea as to what they sound like - how they make music.

So, for those of you who know (and hopefully own), Salk speakers, what is the "signature sound" of these beauties? I know what to pretty much expect from a Harbeth, Spendor, Thiel, etc. but what might I expect from Salk?

The impression I got from some threads is that Salks are on the detailed, transient (leading edge of the notes), and cool side of things, as opposed to, say, Harbeth, which are on the warm and full (body of the notes) side of things.

Thanks in advance, guys and gals.

How are the salk speakers compared to the Tyler Acoustics

Decade Line? Are the Tylers more full rather than lean

sounding?
I guess it is difficult to judge speakers at shows due to room size and other factors,however, both Salk and Tylers
have had excellent reviews by customers who own them.So you really need to hear them in a setting that is closest to yours,although that is always the difficult part because
you would have to incur cost shipping speakers back if you don't like them.
