The New Martin Logan Motion XT1000F & XT2000F...extroidianary performance for the money...and beyond...
a 3 way design speaker with the ESS Heil type sound
I have tried Klipsch RF-7 lll, ADS 780,880, 1290 ll, 1590 ll, ESS 3 ways with HEIL, and Daedalus Speakers. I still own all of these. Is there a speaker with the bass slam and dynamics of Klipsch RF-7 lll, and the midrange and tweeter sound of ESS HEIL, that is as beautiful, efficient, and easy to drive as Daedalus Speakers??
I have VPI prime. AT 760 SLC mm, and Sumiko Blackbird HOMC. Phono preamp is Ayre P-5xe. I run balanced out. I also have a Graham Slee Accession.
I use my Line Magnetic LM-515 CD player with balanced outputs. I like the sound. Great bass and extension. No fatigue with tube buffer output.
I have a Marantz SACD 30n for streaming, and SACD use. The Marantz is definitely a weak link.
I have Simaudio 740P balance into Simaudio 760A.
kinda dry sounding. Thinking this magic unicorn speaker (if existed) would solve my problem.
or do I need a good tube preamp??
looking for advice

Interesting things and thoughts aligning re my last post. PM if curious..."It's a concept you may be able to dance to..." ;) |
I remember the Cerwin Vega speakers sold by chain stores like Crazy Eddies back in the 1970's. I believe they use ESS heil tweeters. They really were dynamic speakers with incredible bass. They came out when disco became popular after the movie Saturday Night Fever appeared in movie theaters around the United States. As I recall they sold very well. |
