Most agreed upon best speaker?

Atmasphere,
Just read about field coil technology. Everything old is new again.
This makes incredible sense to me.
Since loudspeakers are the greatest producers of distortion, essentially due to a lack of control over the moving mass--(over simplification but the basic idea is there), the field coil acts to virtually eliminate it with greater flux density, aka, magnetic strength. I know you know this, I only mention it to help others understand the basic principal. I know I was not aware of these beauties.
Wow, I'd love to hear these things. I'm not in the market at this moment, but, who knows.

Field coils drivers are very tasty indeed.

They have an "ease" that you simply do not find with - anything else, probably.

I had a Supravox field coil setup. The 8", augmented with the giant bass drivers on an OB. Could not really get them to gel in my room.

My favorite setup with them was actually the 8" alone on the JE Labs-type baffle. Heavenly sound, bass to 50 Hz.

The Cogent and Classic horns are pretty special also, of course. Big $$$, of course.

If you are a {MUSIC LOVER}, vintage speakers are the only way to go....{"they just sound more like live music"!} I think the Sansui sp-5500's are one of the best ever made!

Hifisoundguy, you can't get good sound with any modern speakers in your opinion?

>>If you are a {MUSIC LOVER}, vintage speakers are the only way to go<<

I'll bet a lot of "music lovers" will disagree.

You've made some really dumb posts but you may have hit the jackpot with this one.
