2. speakers

Rookie, Considering Either Martin Logan XT60's OR Kef R700's Set Me Straight Folks!...

So here I am taking the jump into a couple of grand worth of tall speakers.

Direct me please to the best sounding of these two, best dynamics, bass, speed, sound stage, imaging and over all value. A lot of this is the WAF and she likes both the Kefs and the ML’s appearance wise, understand the sensitivity of the ML’s is higher than the Kefs, am driving with a Primaluna Dialogue Premium and just want great imaging and great overall sound.

Have heard the ’Folded Motion Tweeter" on the ML’s might be a bit on the bright or harsh side. The Kef’s I have not heard but hear they are fabulous!

Opinions please Ladies and Gentlemen!

Eag we would recommend the same thing road trip time!

Our store Audio Doctor has one of the largest and most diverse collections of loudspeakers in the East Coast.

We have a demo pair of Kef R 700 for $2k we have the new KEF R series as well.

A killer $2k speaker is the Quad S4 these are $1,800 loudspeakers with one of the best ribbon tweeters out there, this is a pure ribbon tweeter which we think is an even better high frequency driver then the Martin Logan tweeter. 

Also the new Dali Oberon's are here and sound amazing for a $1,500.00 set of speakers.

Just food for thought.
