Hemlotech, we are very well qualified to talk about speakers in this price range we display Dali Epicon at $14-20k, the Legacy Focus and Aeris, the Paradigm Persona, ATC, Quad, Cabasse, Rethem, Elac,Kef Reference and Blades.
In the past we have sold, many other brands of loudspeakers.
We talk lot about Legacy because few people have heard them, and they offer incredible value for the money.
How many speakers that are affordable and offer all of these advantages:
1: Managable size
2: High power handling
3: High SPL
4: High efficiency 92db
5: Prodigious bass 18hz
6: Works with tubes and solid state
7: Attractive cabinetry with custom finishes.
8: Optional bass amp
9: Optional Dac/Room Correction processor/and active crossover.
10: Very clean top end and midrange with German made Heil AMT drivers
11: Very clean custom silk/graphite midrange driver
12: Big soundstage and a liquid midrange.
13: Affordable price to performance ratio: Focus Signatures $7k, larger Focus $11-13k.
The tonal balance and deep bass and musical performance means that the speaker is very listenable and well suited to many people's tastes.
We know of only the Golden Ear Reference and the Tekton's offer some of these advantages which is one of the reasons that we love the line.
Are they for everyone? No they are not but then again, what product is?
