Speakers to hang on to for LIFE


After 9 years with my Proac Response 3s, I recently decided to change speakers. As you can tell, I'm not an upgrade fever patient. I want something I can live with for years & I think the best advice I'm gonna get will be from those who have & are still living with their speakers for an extended period of time. Please tell me why too. Thanks.Bob.

Good on ya Joefish, thats what its all about. I just got my BE20,s ,much better than thiels, still in the process of tuning, starting to sound great.
Audiokinesis Jazz Modules. I've been living with these for a little over a year now. I can't recall hearing a speaker that reproduces timbre the way these do, not even my beloved Spendor Classic series 1/2e could match the Jazz Modules in this area. A recent comment by Lynn Olson (part-time PFO reviewer and an audiophile who dabbles in building his own equipment) had this to say about them:

The AK are probably the best horn speakers at this time - frankly, much better than the Geddes Summa or the much-hyped Avante-Gardes or other German exotica.
throw in a cuple of frenchies....cabasse clippers and sampans...friggin' magic.
I got the Altec Lansing ATP3s, they have been with me for almost five years now. They are pretty good.
