What do you all think of ADS/Braun speakers?

Hi,

   I had ADS speakers and loved them for their liquid and somewhat transparent sound, but it's been a long time since I heard them (I sold them to my cello student who needed a good pair of speakers for peanuts - ouch), and would like your opinion on them, before hunting them down again.

 

Thanks in advance - happy listening to all,

 

James

My L1290/2 speakers were very neutral but needed to play louder than I normally wanted to sound good. I also wanted a little bit more high treble. The imaging was very good but the soundstage was not as wide and detailed as I would have preferred. They were excellent overall speakers but not quite what I was seeking. I still keep an eye out for a nice pair of L1090s, though.

I had 3 different pair- loved them back in the day. I think they’d still compete today soundwise.

ADS bookself was my first love on 1978.

 

It sounds very musical driven by Fisher Integrated and Garrard turntable.
