Anyone heard these? How do they sound?

"I used to sell them. We nicknamed them the Stinka if that gives you any idea..."

This is way off base. I agree that run passively they might not be my first choice, but they are certainly a reasonable one. And when run actively, if you think they stinka, I think you can't heara.

Tim, I am just saying lots of context is necessary.

Funny enough, I read the editorial while on the toilet too.

Well fellas... these are quite er ..interesting and enlighting comments. I am so glad I asked this question in the first place. I did a small amount of research and it seems that to buy this speaker and the associated LINN gear
to appreciate them active would fall outside of my budget.
But I sure get entertained.. (I mean educated) by all the
wise audiophiles here at the forum.
THANKS
