the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data?

I went down the single driver speaker rabbit hole after living 2 miserable years with a pair of Klipsch RP600M. Sometimes knowing what you absolutely hate can steer you in a direction. I just don’t want my speakers to sound like the singer is behind a door. The speakers I bought have almost no reviews and nobody cares. I bought them on a whim from a Google ad. 
 

… And I’m pretty darn happy with my decision! I guess I’m just a crazy person screaming in a well. Everyone else is probably going for the Buchardt S400 in that price. 

@kokakolia nice teaser. WHAT IS IT????????!!!!!!

:)

btw I only heard and tried Klipsch towers and they all sounded dead to me

Klipsch Heritage line are the only ones to consider.  A ton of choices!

@dave_b yes, I know - I mean I can imagine. A very different category....

@grislybutter Closer Acoustics OGY. I love them
