Hi

I'm considering a pair of Quad 11L speakers to upgrade my current
system. They get rave reviews in all the mags but has anyone on here
actually heard a pair?

They're about the right size for my system and room (Arcam Alpha 9,
Arcam Diva CD82) but I want something that won't sound boomy near a
wall (about 12 inches away). I had to return a pair of B&W CDM 1's for
that reason.

Or maybe someone could recommend something similar - I just love the
maple burr finish of the Quads.

Hope this helps in some way :

I read reviews , I listened at the dealers , I thought they were ****e , I
didn't buy , I don't trust reviews , I use my own ears .

Motto : try listening to them if you can , its the only way .
