Which speaker is the master of IMAGING ????


My jaw has only dropped with one system. I was at the Home Entertainment Show in NYC last summer when I was floored. It was the Legend Audio 'The Legend' speakers powered by Legend Audio Nirvana 100 watt Tubed Monoblocks.

OH MY GOD! Till this day, I get chills just thinking about the experience. It was like there was an entire stage filled with people and instruments right in front of me. The best part was when I took my eyes off of this stage to look at the speakers,,,,,,,,,,,,YOU WOULD SWEAR THAT THEY WEREN'T EVEN ON. I have heard other speakers that have exceptional qualities in other areas but I haven't imaging like that since that day.

Any other great imaging speakers out there?

The best imaging ive heard yet (for the small size especilly) were the Fulton FMI 80s I just found at a second hand store for twelve bucks...The only coloration I hear is coming from my giddy laughter evry time I hear them
KEF Q1 bookshelf speakers are oddly adept at imaging...
i got a couple of these as Get-By speakers, after i sold my old deftechs and processor to upgrade my processor...

$225 a pop, and they sound in my view, far better than the Definitive Technologys BP2004TLs which sell for $800 each. (and no, it was not the processor holding the deftechs back, ive done side by side comparisons on the same processor with these)

these were origionally get-by speakers but thier performance totally floored me, very suprising.

Anyways, these things image like steven speilberg. talk about depth and pinpoint accurracy.

what started out as a "Get by" speaker has turned into what will probably be one of my favorite and most cherished stereo posessions.
Ok, you gonna keep us in suspense, or are you gonna tell us which two those are?

After further listening in real world rooms I have to lean towards the Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 7s followed by the Sophias and the Kharmas. Sound this good in a typical room only gets better when the room is tricked-out. The Kharmas and Wilsons are so close that any difference becomes personal. The one element that really impressed me was how much of a difference an interconnect makes. The sound stage that the Valhalla throws when everything is equal and with a push of a button you can go from one IC to another, is not only audible but its dramatic. I trust what I witnessed and what I heard because the demo was on my system and I was given a week to play. Peace and Good Listening , Pat.
