I’m torn between the Goldenear BRX and the more expensive, by about $500, Buchardt S400 MKII...both utilize passive radiators. My last passive radiator speaker was way back in the 80’s, a pair of Realistic (Radio Shack) Optimus 10’s, those speakers sounded fantastic. They had an 8 inch woofer and a 10 inch passive radiator. Here is an old print ad for them on ebay....these speakers had extraordinary bass that you could feel....
Feel free to talk me off the ledge
Just picked up my new Rogue RP-1 from a dealer. That coupled with my Rogue Atlas, then to my Klipsch Heresy IV's with an SVS PB2000 pro has me over the moon right now. But funny thing happened at the dealer.. I couldn't help myself, I listened to some other speakers. I'm an idiot, a glutton, a fool. As you can imagine I'm now about a third the way down the rabbit hole.
At the dealer I was enchanted by a pair of Golden ear BRX monitors, they were so sweet, airy and open. Can't stop thinking about them.
Now I'm looking at:
Paradigm founder 80F
Tyler Time Keepers
The Golden Ear BRX
Vandersteen's among others..
Am I nuts? should I join a support group (other than the other one I'm already in) ?
Feedback always appreciated

@doyle3433 Are you ready to report back, nearly three months now. |
I auditioned the BRX further and they truly are a great stand mount, worth every penny and then some! I actually ended up with they Tyler Timekeepers and I’m glad I did. I was very intrigued by the small shop and it’s super helpful and gregarious owner Tyler. A true gentleman and stand up guy. I liked the story, the product in line, read everything I could, and sort of took a leap. First time I’ve ever bought speakers based on other peoples opinions no regrets at all. |
