Having owned all these get the 8e, you wont need stands,they work well with a wide range of gear, and they look great. Same Spendor sound.
Would like some advice on Spendors
My wife wants to pick up a set of Spendors. She fell in love with them on hearing a set of SP100 and SP1/2s when we were on vacation. For her the warmth and vocals were just perfect and she doesn't care about any possible deficiencies with bass or timing etc. I heard these myself and was very impressed with the vocals. Our other speakers are JMLab Utopis BEs which I think we will quite different from the Spendors so there should be a nice overall with the 2 sets.
There are a number of different models floating around at various prices with good opportunity to pick up used, ex-demo or even new models. We are looking at
Spendor 7/1 (not made any more)
Spendor SP1/2 (E)
Spendor 1
Spendor S8Es
My problem is that I have only ever heard the SP100s (too big for us) and the SP1/2s from the above list and even though all have some very strong reviews behind them I’d like to hear from anyone who has listened to anything on the list and if anyone has an opinion between models etc.
Thanks,
James
