since 1973, i've never been 'without' a pair of large advents. across the board, they play as flat as a pancake, and never disappoint. they come close in sound to any speaker at any price(even today), and though they aren't the last word in 'anything', when the mood hits, and i want to pull out my classic late 60's, early 70's records(not the audiophile ones, but the ones i really love), there is no better 'fun' speaker than Henry Kloss's masterpiece. As the original instructions once said...'don't spend too much on an amplifier'. i still believe these classic 'fun' speakers, paired with a thorens tt, and a sweet marantz receiver could compete with system at CES or THE show.
what are"fun" speakers?
Is it just me, or is it that when people say speakers are "fun" they mean it as a left-handed compliment, kind of like, "these speakers sound pretty good for being so CHEAP". I don't think I've ever heard Wilson's referred to as "fun". I guess you gotta be pretty serious when you listen to those puppies.
