Any experience with TAD speakers ?

I've owned a pair of TAD 2402's for 3 years. I run them with Audio Research gear and a Rega DAC, Thorens TD-245, etc. I built sturdy bases for the speakers that set the at ear level in my 20' x 30' listening room. I've been listening to hifi for 42 years and have owned everything that I considered interesting at one point or another. Over 50 systems is a guess. This is a system I just sit down and listen to every night, without the need to pick it apart. It just plays music. Sure, it's fun to change out wires, and roll an amp or tubes once in awhile. But the speakers aren't being sold in my lifetime. I've heard the current half mil $ systems out there. They haven't made me want to consider a trade. I'm fat and happy, after a life of seeking this very thing.

I've owned a pair of TAD 2402's for 10 years. I don't know of a better 2-way horn system. When you realize 2-way is as good as it gets (as you will inevitably do when you become a snotty pants speaker junkie), you know the x-over point needs to be set as far outside the mid-range band as possible, on either end of the spectrum. IMHO, IMHO... yadda yadda. I find that I will keep these for ever as long as I have a pair of Prodigy Martin Logans to remind me that they kick ass on the TADs with an x-over down at 250 hz. If I sold either pair, I'd simply lose my mind trying to find a replacement. My 5 YO prefers the TADS. My 18 YO Princeton kid prefers the MLs. They're both smarter than me.
