I use Zu Definition 4s, not cheap but do they play the blues!

Speaker advice for listening to Blues music
So here is a stone cold classic speaker I think could do the job. It's used and a bit over your budget but its a classic for a reason. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649486279-spendor-s100-with-sound-anchor-stands/ No affiliation with the seller just a huge fan of classic Spendors. Good luck with your search and have fun with it! |
Orange City, Florida, south a bit from Daytona Beach, off of I-4. Speaking of Alvin Lee. His " The Bluest Blues " is awesome. My systems are very revealing, and if I am listening to a bad recording ( poorly mic’d, over compressed, ridiculous use of eq, etc, ) I hear it. However, I have trained my ears to still listen to them, if I am liking the musicianship. I will turn these recordings down a tad, in volume. Fortunately, I do not have many recordings that are unlistenable. When I went passive 2 years ago ( permanently, since I have dabbled with passive for more years than I can remember ), I can say, I am hearing what was intended, by the musicians, producers, recording, and mixing engineers, etc., and would not have it any other way. BTW, if anyone here is familiar with Keb' Mo', he is a bit bluesy, and his recordings are stellar. Enjoy ! MrD. |
