No love for Legacy Audio


Hello all. I have been on a few discussions here and read many more. I have not seen many of the posters here talk much about Legacy Audio speakers. I am referring to the Signature SE model and the Focus SE model. I am curious why people don’t seem to like them as much as several other brands that get talked about much more here. What is it you like better about the ones you are consistently raving about. Thank you.

I have all Legacy so I’m of course going to tilt their way a bit. Came from Miller Kreisel to Ascend Acoustics... then Legacy. I have the complete gig. Legacy Focus Se’s, Marquee Center, Phanton surrounds, Deco rears, 4 of their Foundation Subwoofers and 2 of their new IV Amps. I tried Tekton Double Impacts but sent them back. Too much going on in that tweeter area for me and balanced or not they just were not as detailed. Not even close. I’m thrilled with the system. Recently went with a Lyngdorf MP-40 processor and the finished product is incredible. I just wish everyone could have a listen to this system. Whether it's idling along or Movies @ reference wise... or Video concerts at 112 db. wise, its captivating. Absolutely no ear fatigue. None. My favorite part is watching people’s faces during the concerts, or during the movies. I always ask. "Too loud"? "Anybody want it turned down a bit?" Everybody is always " hell no" . My wife and I entertain and put on a show once a month. Cant want for the next one ! It’s worth every penny to me. And to me at least... I have made a very very good choice. Each his own. There are tons of great products out in this world, but Legacy is a player..

Bill Dudleson was making a commit on one of his podcasts that when he first released the Signatures he gave them to a buddy that owned a recording studio. After a month or so Bill was talking to him and ask about the speakers. He was told "Their GREAT. But we need about 10 more db. for our usage". That is when Bill got to work designing the Focus SE's. What you say makes perfect sense. And I love mine !
