I already mentioned on a previous post about all the different systems and brands I have been through. But I thought you might like to hear the "rest" of the story. How I actually ended up with the keeper.
Back about 7 years ago I started on my quest. I called the dealer that handled Legacy. Told him who I was, and I was willing to drive these 300 miles between us to have a listen to a set of Signatures. At the time they were 6500.00 and that’s about all my wallet would absorb. My wife had had just about enough of me changing from one system to another. But I just could not resist this drug we call audio(phile). I ask him if he had prices displayed on the speakers. He answered "Yes". I said, "Can you take them off?" He quickly replied, "Why you bringing your wife"? I chuckled Yes. So, I grabbed a few CD’s and we headed down. We LOVED the Signatures. He left us alone in the demo room for about 20 minutes and then returned to see what we thought. I was wondering about break in and ask him if the Tweeter would sound any different with a few more hours on it. I was just pretty much making conversation, but he said. Well, the Focus SE’s have been here 3 months and have pretty much been played continually "Have a listen to them as they have the same tweeter". Sue was standing right behind me as he fired up the Focus SE''s.. (I was seated). It only took about 30 or 40 seconds and to my surprise Sue says, "Oh My God babe,.. THAT’S what we want"! I told her those are kind of out of our price range. She then blows me away with, "Well, our stock is doing pretty good". I bout fell over. That was the beginning of my Legacy journey. I now have a complete Legacy system,... Speakers, Center, Sides, Rears, Subs and Amps. I am done hunting. After 70 years, my journey is final over. And we couldn’t be happier.

@nitrobob so, did you get the Focus SE or Signature SE? I’m down to either of these speakers this upcoming fall. |
quattro_s4We went with the Focus. More dynamic. Just a plain down fuller sound. I know they're a little bit more money. But there's no way I would steer you towards the Signatures. One's minor leagues, the other is major leagues. |
@newton_john we at infigo audio have specifically focus with our is1 streamer to get every ounce of performance out of quboz and tidal to give our listeners every ounce of performance of these formats.It allows the listeners the best sound quality in these formats acts. We use them. We test them repeatedly. We try different things repeatedly. Our streamer converts Ethernet to fiber optic so that the sound quality is improved. We have found what’s worked best and we are using it. |
