Klipsch Cornwall III with Bryston 4B SST2 / BP17 ?
Hey Jamo1, try it, and if you don't like it, try another speaker. I run my JBL S4700s (which have horn compression drivers for the mids/highs) with a Bryston amp and preamp, and the results aren't too bad at all. What you might wanna try is tubes ...

Yeah, it does.I have the Bryston BP6P preamp, and 4BSST amp. Technics 1210M5G w/Audio-Technica AT150MLX cartridge, and Onkyo DX-7555 cd player. That's pretty much it. I'm looking to upgrade the amp and preamp hopefully later this year, finances pe...

Audiolabyrinth, that is true! Well, that definitely is the way to go. yeah, you might not. That's why I suggested the K2s or even the S4700s. How much better is really up to you!

Yeah, I hear ya. I'm not gonna get worked up about it anymore, it's not worth it really. Thanks for the explanation. Ok, thanks for letting me know. I would hope that they are out there! Basically, I wanna share my passion with others as man is a ...

haha yeah, exactly! I believe you 100 percent. A lot of speakers fail to make the grade. No names mentioned!

Audiolabyrinth, that's the way to do it; listen and compare, and compare to the competition as well as the other speakers in the JBL Synthesis lineup if possible. And yes, a used pair is a lot of money too. Imo, the list prices on these JBLs are a...

Well, that's cool about the stores around here. As far as being a wasteland, I said kind of. Meaning, I haven't met any fellow audiophiles around here and the audio club thing looks like it's not gonna happen. And there just doesn't seem to be tha...

@Dentdog: I've only heard the Revel's and JBLs. I'm not familiar with Salk speakers. I've heard of them, but that's about it...So, between the Revels and JBLs, I prefer the JBLs. Better dynamics and more realism to me.However, the Revels are a goo...

Audiolabyrinth, I hear ya. What a great value on the used market. Much cheaper than a new pair of K2s! Yeah, I suppose we should envy him. But, you ultimately have to be content with what you have and can't worry about what everyone else has. Othe...

I like 6Moons too. I also have liked (and still do) Tony Cordesman's articles for years in various publications.

Yeah, that store on Charleston is pretty much it. It's kind of an audio wasteland around here. The whole audio club thing sunk like the Titanic (see the thread in 'Audio Clubs') Yes, I'm more than a little disappointed at this, but what am I gonna... 
Best value in speaker cables??
