Gato speakers
Reviewers have different styles and goals. Steve isn't dissecting every aspect of a $1200 pair of speakers, that's not his MO. He thinks they are well-made, sound pretty good, and are on the warm/lush side of the spectrum. My take away: if that appeals to you, check them out. Steve wants people to enjoy the music and enjoy the hobby. I don't think it's a surprise that Herb Reichert is his friend, and I imagine he enjoyed Sam Tellig's column back in the day. |
All small speakers sound small if that's OK with you then they appear to be a well-made small speakers. Doubt they are that much different than all the other small boxes that are sold today so I would suggest demoing a few doz in that 2k price range so you can find out for yourself. To me, the small box 2 way is a flawed design unless you have a small budget or are used in a very small space in the nearfield and are not capable of any natural scale music production and suffer from thermal compression which leads to listening fatigue after an hour or less of enthusiastic listening. Ever wonder why you are tired of listening in that time frame TC is 1 reason why. I don't have that problem in my systems and they can be used all day long. |
