What is it that you don't like about your speakers ?

Most people usually sing praise of what they have, be it Quad, Harbeth, Vandersteen, Magico or whatever.
In another thread I already said what I didn't like about my Michael Green Audio free resonance speakers. I could add that better frequency extension wouldn't hurt, they can't fully reproduce Hellborg's custom acoustic bass guitar or Glen Moore's customized bass. Fewer complaints regarding high frequences but still. And they don't exactly disappear, though this doesn't bother me much - instruments when played live don't disappear either. Imaging could be sharper but again not bad. I expect some coloration from anything that is a box. This includes room - it is a box as well.

((((The only thing I would have RV change about the Treo CTs is the terminal strip.)))


For many years we have discussed this.
I hit him with the same thing.
He said to do the experiment yourself and listen.
 So I did
Try Big spades
Try Little spades
Try Barrier strip
Try Big Binding posts
 I tried it........
It's a no-brainer experiment
 Small spades / Barrier strip wins and is way more transparent, clear and precise also Cardas Binding Posts work well.

How can you be 100% sure it's really the speakers producing the sound/effect that you don't like so much?

+1  The system needs to be considered as a whole (an organism if you will). We are (understandable and easier to do so) quick to attribute to whichever component or cable or tweak we are working on...but it's an expression of the entire system.

Sound quality is so good I cant stop dancing about if on you can not do anything but enjoy music, conversation, reading etc all near impossible since the music is just so engaging.
