We have currently a lot of monitors in that price range, from ATC, KEF, Dali, Paradigm, Quad.
The Quad Z2 is one of the best sounding monitors we have ever heard in the $2,500.00 price point.
All the drivers are custom designed including one of the best sounding ribbons we have ever heard. Most ribbon tweeters have a bit of glare along with their superior speed and articulation.
The Quad's tweeter is a pure ribbon bonded to a thin layer of plastic which damps the metal which stops the normal ringing which occurs in most conventionally designed ribbon tweeters.
The Quad Z series tweeter is also considerably larger than most ribbons which allows it to handle more power as well as having a lower crossover point.
The Quad Z2 throws a gigantic sound stage, the midrange is smooth and full bodied, the bass is also quite deep and tight.
The Z2 also uses a custom designed Kevlar midrange/woofer which integrates beautifully with the tweeter.
Quad hired Peter Comenaeu the genius behind Heybrook loudspeakers who previously had spent years at Heybrook developing a proprietary ribbon tweeter to spearhead the Quad dynamic loudspeaker project.
They have been receiving rave reviews all over Europe.
