Spatial Audio open baffle speakers, who has them? Worthwhile change from Maggies?

Had u been just ever so slight slower on the trigger

or if I had treated my response like jump shooting ducks, I would have very very very strongly advocated for Eminent Technology panels....

imo u owe those a fair shot.....

Bruces's shop is less than 10 miles from my house and I haven't stopped by to listen to his speakers in many years.  Need to get around to it though.  

In a slightly different context than the OP, I went from Martin Logan Odysseys to the Spatial X3’s, with a brief Ohm Walsh 2000 stop in-between. The Ohm’s are nice, especially for the price. In terms of the X3’s efficiency, and my listening room is fairly small, I use a Graaf GM 20 OTL to drive them and it does so to much higher levels than I can stand for extended periods of time, and sounds great great in the process. I switched from the Logans as space was a consideration (from the room in our last house), not because I didn’t like the speakers. That said, I like these Spatials very much, they work perfect for my space and sound great.

Ahh, a fellow X3 owner. I’m a happy camper with mine as well.

Not to hijack the thread, but how many hours do you have on them?

I have owned the LFT8's and they are in my opinion a better design speaker than the Maggies that I have heard (.7', 1.7i and 1.6). The biggest reason for liking them more was they sound great at low levels and they respond very well to tube amplification. I cannot own a speaker I need to crank to sound open. That is something that I require from a speaker design. They also have much more Dynamic bass.
I owned the LFT's for 12 years. I do miss them actually, but now I own the Spatial TM. I can say the LFT's beat the Spatials in upper bass resolution and soundstage height from what I remember. Otherwise the Spatials work better in my room. Overall I feel I like them both equally.
