Audiophiles hifi appreciation thread old and new

Bluddy terrible.

Arf! They're the most bouncy dynamic Speaker I've ever owned/had in my house. I've transported them to various places to listen to them with other like-minded shed-bound sawdust junkies and in large rooms with solid floors they can sound awethumne (IMO). They're very very fast in the bass due to the saucy 4" driver with not too much mass to shift I'd imagine, the magnet is almost as large as the cone area on these. They're not perfect, there is a horn 'sound' which is Marmite to many. Personally I love 'em, however... since a room reshuffle at home resulting in a lowered ceiling height they don't live in the Lounge anymore, I have them in a smallish 'workroom'/guest bedroom where they function as the worlds largest pair of headphones, the closer you sit to them the more the port output dominates but its a very big (no kidding) 'sound' and the sound-staging is amazing on them. I treated them to some uber-tweaked drivers a while back.

Magnets. I know they get the blame for a lot of stuff on this forum but really.... 'magnets'!
