No love for Legacy Audio


Hello all. I have been on a few discussions here and read many more. I have not seen many of the posters here talk much about Legacy Audio speakers. I am referring to the Signature SE model and the Focus SE model. I am curious why people don’t seem to like them as much as several other brands that get talked about much more here. What is it you like better about the ones you are consistently raving about. Thank you.

From what I see most of the old guard I use to read have passed away, QUIT posting are suspended or they can’t post. I use to read, georgehifi, millercarbon, almarg, GK, tvad, oldhvymec, kenjit, oregonpa, and about 100 other ones.. From what I see Audiogon is literally Audio-erased 85+ % of the great posters. The part I don’t understand is simple tools would have avoided the whole mess.

The "ignore option"

"Closing discussions" I’ve NEVER seen that one. You bring up the WRONG name in "start a new thread" it will be closed.. Something is broke all right. I’ve NEVER seen the moderators speak up and contour the discussion if it starts to go south..

Close or erase the whole thing SEEMS the be the easiest thing to do.. It’s not the right thing to do, but it’s AGs way.. Being a human myself, this site treats some like super humans and some like sub humans, but equality across the board. LOL it just doesn’t happen.

My buddies scold me for even posting here. I figure if I don’t, who will write what I like. I guess it’s up to ME to make me happy..

Red and Scotty both were on the horn last night from Finland of all places. Great supplies are warehoused there.

Scotty said a lot of what they are fixing was messed up from the inside out, NOT the outside in.. He had a big smile on his face. The Fins have the parts at a reasonable price.. FREE. They just have to transport them. That can be tricky.

After this post the number of posters will drop to 24. :-)

Remember from the inside out. Kind of like AG. The posters aren’t the problem. Who’s erasing the post and discussions is.. I know the truth hurts..

Legacy is BIG. I don't care for them..

op the major problem with legacy is a limited number of dealers 

 

wew have sold legacyfor years the signature models are awesome

 

 

 

 

 

 

By all accounts they make some really nice and high-value speakers.  What amazes me is that I can’t recall ever reading a published review of a Legacy speaker.  That probably accounts for a lot of the reason they’re not discussed more here and elsewhere. 

Interesting comments. Seems like I may be late to the this forum party as it appears its heyday is in the past. Unfortunately. 
soix I think Feinstein wrote a very nice review on the signature. He said they were the finest sounding speaker that ever graced his sound room. For what it’s worth and I think I got the right reviewer. 
Also I do own a pair of the signatures. And that is a lot of my reason for this post. I don’t have a huge room for my gear and I never thought their footprint was over the top. They are 109 lbs each. But there are other speakers out there that approach and even exceed their size. I guess I am a little surprised that many of you commented more about their size than about their sound. Like I said. Interesting. 

One other comment. The French speakers that are mentioned above are roughly $16300 which is not too short of double the price for the signatures. I would think they should sound at least somewhat better.
