them well and sound great. I did take a sideways move in the Aerial line when I purchased a pair of stand mounded LR5s that have a similar house sound but are actually better speakers because of the sealed woofers (traded the "larger and deeper" low bass of the 9s for the accuracy and control of the LR5's bass). At the suggestion of Michael Kelly, I augmented the LR5s with a pair of Aerial SW12 subs (also musical and dynamic) for a sound I cannot imagine ever changing. The only possible speaker change I have thought about would be to add another one or two of the SW12 subs. So, while not exactly a "speaker for life" with the A/D/S to Aerial line, I have found a "house sound" for life to meet my desire for a musical speaker that has no problem rocking out.

I looked over a topic on audiokharma,
**List your speakers with your top fav in 1st of list***
I was amazed at how mnay of just one lab these audiophiles own.
Some Audiophiles will sort of COLLECT different modles of 1 single speaker lab.
Just unreal.
Like here with the Aerials, I have no idea what that speaker is , or sounds.
HOUSE SOUND,
Yep, Vandy's have their own unique sound, Thiels their tradem mrak, B&W's all pretty much sound the same.
Point is,
Why get stuck on a *house sound*, which is nothing more or less than *Coloration* = Distortion..
>??
