Sound Stage and Imaging


I love speakers who 'paint a big picture' (I am literally closing my eyes and trying to SEE a picture). Therefore I THINK I like to see IMAGING and BIG SOUND STAGE. And also like DYNAMICS.

Being frugal (just not willing to spent audiophile level money on it), I love to persuit 'bang for buck' solutions in general.

With above goals in mind for a speaker: what hits the marks in the low fi (audiphile scale) $2k (used or new) budget range. (I have 2 setups: one HUGE room, one 20x20).

Head over to the "ADS and Braun Speakers Fan" Facebook page and try to score a well-cared for pair of ADS L2020s, (which will fill your huge room) and / or ADS L1530s or L1230s. These are considered the pinnacle of ADS design and produce great imaging and sound stage, especially if you bi-amp them. Many of the units on the market have been recapped by the legendary Richard So, a former designer at ADS, who is still repairing and re-capping ADS speakers from his workshop in Arizona.
