Have you ever tried a pair of speakers and said this Is the last thing I will ever need.


Hi Audiogoners have you you ever had a local dealer that is so pashonet about audio. That they let you bring in your system for fun and try a $10 000speakers. And you have been to every other local dealers shows and listened to $400 000 and above systems. And then tried a pair of speakers and had so much synergy with your budget system and said omg. This blows all other systems I heard for a fraction of the cost of most others? And have been always happy with that pair of speakers and your system for the rest of your life?

Please share your experience"

No
I have this known problem with speakers. It's the same problem some women have with shoes. Actually my problem is with boats too. So sound waves and water waves. Never met a speaker (or boat) that caught my eye/ear, that I did not like, want, and could not make float in my room/lake. So for speakers I had to stop going to shows and B&M Audio Dealer Salons a long time ago. I am down to two rooms set up with two main speakers, and some other (speakers) are hiding around the house. They have brought me pleasure, so I can't bear to part with them. I will just say that it is much easier to hide speakers than boats.

Hi all! I think this maybe my first post :)
The answer is yes. I own a black set of Sonus Faber Amati Futura and use them regularly in my "A" system. I honestly cannot see myself needing more or feeling short changed if I hear better. Its a nice place to be. I have a "B" system with a lot of valves running, and that'll be my tinker den.
I'll probably never upgrade from my Canton Ergo 1002DCs. Mainly because I'm retired and I'll never have that much in discretionary funds again. But I have a lot more time to enjoy my large music library and to shop vicariously through your posts.
I think that to have the response that it will be the last speaker I will ever own, will be after I had listened and owned many speakers and I finally found a very high quality, expensive design that is a keeper.
