Can you live with your current speaker until you die?

Yes I can!

In my 40 years of history I had gone through around 15 speakers including

ADS, Altec Lansing, Thiel, Canton, Apogee Duetta Signature(10years), BMW 801, Avalon Ascent, Wilson Audio Watt and Puppy6.



I settled at Pacific Northwest area located just midway between Seattle and Vancouver BC around 6 years ago.

It has a nice western view of Bay and Pacific Ocean with 2 acres lot.

I could play music loud during midnight with no problem to my neighbors as long as I close the windows.


With vaulted big space, my Lansche 4.1 speakers makes a beautiful voice out of classical, Jazz or even new age music.

I had been living with the speaker since 2007.

I do not claim that Lansche 4.1 is the best speaker in the world.

But with clean and pristine treble out of plasma tweeters and pretty good bass out of 2 10 inch driven by internal active amplifier and high efficiency (99db spec, but I believe it to be around 93db), it is hard to find better speaker with overall merit for my house.


The only catch is that it can stop working since it is an active speaker( plasma tweeter and active bass unit).

But I keep having good communication with Henry Dien of Lansche Audio who upgraded plasma tweeters twice at reasonable cost.

I can happily live with Lansche 4.1 speakers at my present house for my life unless serious health issues happen to either me or my speakers.

How about you gentlemen and ladies?

Had any one of you found the speaker for your life?

Your speaker look tidy.

 

If you could upload the Youtube video of its sound, it will help

My humble audio system looks simple and cheap. In my > 4 decades audio pursuing, I had some big/expensive systems (wall of audio components) before. But I found it is not the answer for the best audio sound. 

Hmm. You haven't watched my video yet. I've been posting my videos regularly in Agon for many years. I think I should post more often. Alex/Wavetouch

If You Could Read My Mind - Gordon Lightfoot, (Low vol) Live recording

Like you, in my current home, in my current room (and I don’t plan on moving anytime soon) my "take-to-the-grave" speakers are, my beloved Revel Salon 2 speakers. The Salon 2 speaker perform, from top to bottom, at such a high level of proficiency, I just don't have to want for anything more.  The Revel Salon 2 speakers are absolutely phenomenal speakers that I could live with forever!!!

Apogee Diva was my endgame speaker on 1989 but could not afford it and settled on Duetta Sig instead.

It is available at reasonable price but local pickup only.

If I want to get it, I have to drive 15 hours
