Most "Musical" speakers


Need input or opinion on what are the most "musical" speakers in the $3000-$5000 range.... Are so-called "musical" speakers less accurate??

Vandersteen 3A Signatures are the winner here in my book. The Maggies and Von Schweikert are also very good
Musical and accurate should be the same thing, since an accurate speaker (one with a flat smooth response) will not cause listener fatigue and hence will be more "musical". The Vandy 3A Sig is an accurate speaker, it's only "forgiving" in the sense that it doesn't hype up the upper mids like so many "ruthlessly revealing" speakers do.
SunnyJim,
Why do most people think that the high price tag will produce the best speaker? There are plenty of "musical" speakers out there under the $500 range that will embarrass the higher price stickers! I know, I have owned a few. Vandersteen, Logan, Revel, B&W, Sonus Faber, Totem, and the list goes on. Unfortunately I have had the cursed upgrade disease! I have had this audio disease for about 15 years. My biggest speaker regret has been a pair of Polk Audio speakers that I purchased at a second hand store, the model number escapes me, but the speakers were tremendouse sounding in their imagaging and soundstage. I sold them in pursuit of something in a higher price range that didn't even come close to the sound they had, even though I tried to convince myself to justify the purchase. If you are looking for a great musical speaker that will hold it's own with the "big boys", try a pair of Epos ES14 speakers and you will be dumbfounded at the music these little guys produce. Good luck in your pusuit...
