Summary:
They measure badly and the reviewer doesn't like them, with a little bit of a dig at the UK "audiophile" scene thrown in.
It's an interesting point that often speakers with flat response are not preferred in subjective tests (although the opposite is happening here; they are not flat and the reviewer doesn't like the sound either).
I bought a pair of Spendors second hand without listening to them first, and was initially deeply underwhelmed. It was only after I'd had them for quite a while that I really started to appreciate how good they are.
