Montana speakers, musical? Good Value????

I owned EPS's for about 3 years. I was happy till I started to play with horns first;then moved to Merlin mm's then Wilson Sophia. Everything I owned after the EPS told me while they have great tuneful bass they are a bit recessed in the upper range. (While the Merlin's bass was practically non existent.) I owned the MM's for about 5 months and always longed for the bass the Montana gave to the music. I just think Sophia gives you the best of both upper and lower---(Till I can afford whatever new/ best floats my boat.) If you could graft the lower section of the EPS to a Merlin-- that would be "IT".

I have owned two pairs of SP2s in the last three years (long story) and I can say they are highly musical speakers. Not the last word in resolution or bass extension, but you won't really be thinking about that. They just draw you into the music. I have not heard the larger offerings.

You must hear them for yourself, just like any other speaker. In general I've found them to be very musical, with a softer top end than you will find on speakers having ribbons or metal tweeters. In that regard they are very enjoyable without fatigue. But they do convey all the detail you need - it's just not in your face like the metals are.

Soundateging is a factor of your room and speaker placement. Almost any speaker will soundstage well if set up properly (and not, if set up poorly).

Good luck,

So they have good detail but not harsh and in your face high? If so that might be the ticket, my wife thinks the Innersound Eros are too bright. The Montana would seem a good very listenable speaker.

i would again look into the tyler acoustics. they use one of the best tweeter which is the SEAS MILLENIUM. i have two pairs of his speakers and what is reported as not in your face is also true of the tyler acoustic lines esecially with the millenium tweeter. i do not know how big your room is so its going to be dependent on that as well. the floor standing linbrook signature monitor is a great all around speaker that works well in most rooms that are medium to large. also the speakers are easy to drive. no short cuts with ty on build quality or drivers used.
