I'm thinking Spendor, and am interested in them because of these vintage B&W DM4's I picked up. The Spendor BC1 was very much the same,same mid and super tweeters as the DM4's.
These vintage B&W's are freakin wonderful and totally open. So,I thought Spendor's would be worth checkin out too.

Thanks for all the comments and info!
I've owned a paid of Spendor 1/2s for four years and still wonder at their ability to embody acoustic string (bluegrass, Malian, etc.) and put across well-recorded piano music, like Debussy and Oscar Peterson. Solo voice, like Naïve's Vivaldi recordings, also flourish. Since I bought these black beauties from a Nashville Audiogon seller, and the vintage is plausible, I like to imagine they were Johnny Cash's way of hearing. On the warm side, as others have noted. If you prefer the dry and analytical, these Spendors may seem just a little too wet. But if you're like me, B&W (for example) sound like sandpaper blocks. Personally, these old Spendors make my ears grin.
Have owned my S100s now for 18 years and very content with them. Curious if u still have you have yours or what u may have replaced them with.
I can't quite match Gthgmg with his 18 years, but I have owned my SP100s for 11 years and am still very happy with their sound. I recently investigated several speakers that have attracted a lot of press lately, but I haven't heard anything so far that makes me want to pull the trigger. The SP100 isn't perfect, but it does manage to do so many things right that I find it very satisfying over the long haul. When I listen to it, I hear music and I don't start making mental lists of its shortcomings.
When I 1st chimed in on this thread my S100's were 19 yrs old. I got 'em for Xmas in 1990 so obviously they're 22 yrs old! I'm listening to these bad boys right NOW!;) We're rockin' in the new year! It's obvious from mine and other similar posts that Spendor's are keepers!
