I tried to audition the Focus speakers three years ago and failed. I had read the great review of the Focus in The Sensible Sound. It was right at the top of my budget so I called and made an appointment to visit a regional audition site in Pasadena CA. We drove 300 miles to get there, arrived at the agreed time and know one was there. We waited 90 minutes and left. The people at Legacy call me the following Monday and explained what had happened and how they couldn’t get to a phone to cancel the appointment. Now here’s the best part. If not for Legacy I may not have stopped by that other dealer and heard the Thiel 6’s I have now. So if you folks at Legacy are reading this “Thank”
Legacy anyone?
On April 21st and 22nd, the Legacy show makes its stop in the Philadelphia area. At the Valley Forge Radisson. I have been fortunate enough to have received an invite. I will certainly attend. I am on record here for attending a past show(1997), and have stated my disappointment. Actually, Legacy is my biggest source of disappointment in high end audio. And why I always stress the importance of a proper auditioning. Buying sound unheard being one of the biggest dangers in audio. But, it is now a new day. Legacy has many new products, and even a new line. I would like to give them another listen. I would like to know if anyone else will be attending. And also, if anyone has visited the shows prior to them coming to Valley Forge. What were your impressions. Has Legacy kept its focus? What are the new products like? Is the company going in the right direction? Or, has the explosion of their product line resulted in them taking a step backward in overall sonic quality, due to an inability to concentrate on the keeping the basics right? Thank you!
