I heard my tech geek's Auoustic reserach AR3's double stacked from the 70's. Running a Golden tube Amp and a conrad Johnson 12AT7/12AX7/12AU7 preamp.
He said he loved this sound, as it sounds like a jazz club type image, Agree.
Imprsssive, but after soe time with my classical there indded will be certain fq's that will grate my nerves aftera few days, = good but not cigar.
Is what i am trying to say.
They have that old paper cone resonances( = distortion sort of) hanging over upper bass/low mids that I just can't stand.
+ his room was 3x's the size of mine,
=- Not doable.
Vintage will never out shoota good WBer in midrange.
This is what i am trying to say.
But of course old vintangers love their paper cone woofer sound.
That is their cup of tea. Never mine.
I've since moved on to true hifi speakers.
