Spendors SP-100 R.....anybody heard them ?

take a deep breath, and then keep your avalons. the merry-go-round isn't as much fun as it used to be.

Jaybo...thanks, have you listened to the Spendors SP-100R's ?

i haven't heard the new anniversary's, but i've listened to every other variation of the 100 that spendor has made. don't get me wrong, spendor makes really nice speakers, and normally i would certainly recommend them. you have however, one of the finest dynamic driver loudspeakers ever made, and thats compared to pretty much anything i can think of. a classic, even by avalon standards....and that pretty much says it all. balanced, neutral, weight, open top end, and they are friggin beautiful to boot.

You got me there, I haven't heard the "R" version, but I have heard almost every other iteration going back to the original BC-3 (I own BC-1). Those are good speakers, but considering that you already own good speakers, I tend to agree with Jaybo.
