Does this speaker exist?

I'm ready to sell the Dunlavys, let me know if you want to have a conversation about it.

Zenblaster -- I have a pair of the LS50. I don't think they're quite what I'm after, but maybe, as Jimc555 says, it's a setup problem.

The Dunlavys I have are the SC-III.A, which is like the Cantata. Decent bass foundation.

Great suggestions, everybody.

Dodgealum -- I think it's time for me to have another listen to Lou's creations. I haven't been going to RMAF the last few years and he doesn't hit the California shows, so it's been a while.

Funny, as others have observed, these topics eventually reach a point where every product on the market is recommended. :-)

But don't let me discourage anyone, I appreciate all comments.

Tubegroover -- I'm beginning to re-think my comments about imaging
and soundstaging. I've had a pair of the little KEF LS50 for a few weeks
now and these things image like all get-out and I find it mighty appealing.

Here's my to-do list as of today: Harbeth Monitor 30.1, KEF R-series
(probably the 500 or 900), Revel new Performa series, Vivid 1.5. I'd like to
hear some of the Vapor models, too. There will be others, I am sure.

I'm in Redwood City, CA.

Bombaywalla -- thank you for giving this so much thought and for providing some technical foundation to my request. I have always appreciated your comments on Audiogon but rarely see you posting these days.

I will give more thought to what i mean by "refinement." It's not detail, or it's not only detail. I owned GMA Europas for a while and felt, ultimately, that they did not have enough refinement. Whatever that is, as you say.

One comment about planars is that in general they do not have the small soundstage I prefer. The giant vocals and 6 foot tall pianos can be a problem. I've been tempted to try some, but worry about my cats. :-)

More later ...
