Started this thread over two years ago. Just shows our diversity and how all of us perceive sound. This is as it should be,just a wealth of information. A few months ago acquired a pair of Alon Point V floor standing speakers. After living with these awhile I have found them very musical as far as box speakers are concerned. The clarity and sound stage is just down right amazing. These have managed to replace the venerable Time Windows,something I didn't think would happen. At this point will be looking at the upper line of Alons. If you haven't heard Alon speakers,do audition a pair. I think you will be most impressed.
Can anyone say REVEL???? I was, a short time ago, in an audio store that carried B&W, Revel, and Vandersteen. They had a room of all Levinson equipment to try out these lines. The B&W 802 were on a pair of 33H. the sound was good, but not great. We traded the B&W for the Vandersteen 3 and went down hill. After the disappointment, we walk to another room of identicle size where they had a Classe system consisting of the CDP1, a 47.5 pre, and the CA200 amp hooked up to a pair of Revel Studios, the small brother of the Salons. The sound was the best I have heard to date. I attend CES every year and still have found nothing better. Assuming the Levinson equipment is better than the Classe, The Studios were even more impressive. STUDIOS, STUDIOS, STUDIOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Apogee Divas, Infinity IRS, JBL Paragon, MBL 101 D- Radialstrahler, original B&W Nautilus, Martin Logan Statements.
Klipschorns would most definitely have to be at the top of that there list.They were developed before many of us so called audio fanatics were born! It's almost like being in the league of Tommy Edison for developing the phonograph.

Other notables would be KLH,Magnepan,JBL,BOSE(for the 901's),Advent and there must be other's but those names have to be in the hall of fame.
the large advent,the dahlquist 10,the bose 901,the allison 4 ,the rogers ls 3/5, the epi 100,the spica 50,the shahinian arc,the vandy 2ce,the klipch heresy....honorable mention the ohm walsh designs....all were infinately musical and affordable..the vandys and the bose still are.
