Audio Physic Caldera mkii...still good?

Samuel:
That is a great review! Thanks for sharing the link. By the way, what did you replace them with after four years? (I'd think that with one or two Rel sub-bass units, with the crossovers set waaayyyyy low, they'd have even more closely approached sonic perfection.) Just curious, as the Calderas had achieved "holy grail" status in my mind after listening to them years ago.....

By the way, I've heard things similar to what you said above about the newer AP products, but have no direct personal experience, so cannot make any judgement about them.

Hi Bill,

I own the Wilson MAXX2's now, which seems a dirty word here on 'gon, but I am very happy with them. Even built a room with Rives to optimize their performance.

If I could own a second pair of speaks they would easily be the Calderas due to their refinement and dissappearing act. They are also easy on the eyes with flawless wood work.

Best,

Grant

Samuel,
Thanks for the follow-up. I don't understand the Wilson "controversy" for two main reasons:
1. First and foremost: I've never heard Wilsons, ever, so it's not even remotely possible for me to understand the arguments.
2. Second: Even if I had heard them, I'd continue to have no problem whatsoever with people purchasing what they want, and would continue NOT presume to know "better" than someone else what sounds good, or even what "should" sound good, to THAT PERSON.

However, I am still willing to PREDICT that the Calderas will sound very good indeed to Richard! :))))
