I think this is true, especially at my budget. I have heard great
American speakers but nothing I could think of buying. However, some of
my formerly English-camp friends have switched to Dynaudio.
You're American?
Don't **** about then - avail yourself of a pair of Mr Lansing's K2's.......
(Sell a kidney or rob people if you have to!)
Biwirable speakers are much better than non-biwirable ones.
Interesting you don't say "biwired" but just "biwirable". Presumably
because if somebody has taken the trouble make them biwirable, they
might also have taken the trouble to do other things right??
Good thinking (well spotted on the grammar, btw) - the same goes for a real
wood veneer. Not a guarantee, of course......
Anyway, do you have any advice on my original query (posted in another
thread): I have a 20+ yr old Spendor BC1 pair. Have been quite happy
with it but would like to find out what would be candiates to make a
meaningful upgrade ("one" step up) and what would be the budget for
such an upgrade in today's market? My short list to audition, drwan up
from others' suggestions, includes Proac, Dynaudio as well as Spendor's
own S6 (although it is in the process of being replaced by S6e).
Dynaudio? - They would be perfect if they had Focal drivers! ;-)
Can't comment on the Spendors as I have no experience, but follow the other
posters advice and get a selection of candidates HOME to try them out -
nowhere else will do. (If you want Brit speakers that have most of my
criteria covered add Bowers & Wilkins to your list and climb as far up their
tree as funds will allow.....)
