larry5729, I will try to give you the best description I can. Some speakers were not available so we auditioned the next level up.
In my original post are the list of speakers I auditioned, now compared to those the Legacy Audio Focus SE with an SS amp, turntable and iTunes as a source. They were well balanced, what I mean by that is the highs didn't stand out, the bass was pronounced but not boomy. All the speakers we auditioned the highs were more pronounced compared to the Legacy's. (Macintosh amp)The Revel F228Be, (looking at the F208's) were nice and very detailed but not much on the low end, the salesman said the speakers should actually be more in the corner of the walls. (primaluna)The KEF R11's were good all around but was missing in the mid range and slightly lacking in the low end. (ss amp bestbuy)Bowers and Wilkens 702's were way to bright. Focal Aria 936 sounded better than the KEF's but the Aria 948 had the low end and came second to the Legacy. Compared to the Legacy the Aria 948's sounded boomy, not until I listened to the Legacy speakers did I notice. (primaluna)Martin Logan Motion 60XTi, didn't bring a bat to the baseball game, not a contender. (primaluna)The Klipsch
Cornwall IV speakers "loved" how engaging they were but lacked the low end, just not for me. I just remembered we did listen to the Totem towers, the Tribe with and without sub. They are amazing speakers, definitely needs a sub. The Hawks were very good until I heard the Tribes.
