Speaker upgrade suggestions

Hifisoundguy, I have seen MANY pairs of Timeframes in the Seattle area craigslist for as low as $150 per pair in very good condition.
I know people love them. They are big though like my a/d/s but nowhere near sexy as the a/d/s
I have read people say that the later eighties models are the ones to get.

Mcgarick....I think these all new TFE200's are the best that DCM has ever made. I think the Sensible Sound review is spot on..."THE SPEAKER'S TONALITY REMINDS YOU OF WHAT ONE HEARS...FROM $$,$$$ 5 FIGURE SPEAKERS TARGETED AT AUDIOPHILES"..... I am not connected with this company in any way.

Go to audiocircle.com. There is a poster there with a pair and with a copy of the Sensible Sound review. Apparently the review is being misquoted. The reviewer never said they were the best, only that they go lower than any speaker he had in his room. The poster really likes the speakers though his comments about the mid-range being dry are a red flag for me, personally.

These speakers did sound a little cold with the nickel-plated jumper cables that came with the speakers and the steel grille if left on while listening to music. These speakers sound amazing when you use better jumper cables and take that steel grille off when listening to music....you need a 3/16"Allen wrench to take off the steel grille. These speakers are going to sound different in different rooms and how much room treatment your using. Everybody has different tastes so these speakers are not going to please everyone but I just love mine......
