What is the Meadowlark house sound?

Clean, clear, non tiring, all of the music comes through.
My Blue Herron 2's are the most secure components in my system. They will not be on the block for many, many years.

Like Joe, I was unimpressed with the smaller Meadowlarks (like the Swifts) which sounded flat and unengaging. The Osprey's are where things get interesting; I've heard them with Cary tube amps and as I recall they lean somewhat to the rich/warm side, and are much more engaging.

My personal opinion, though, is that for the (retail, anyway) price there are more impressive offerings.

Just my two cents.

Sufentanil, I would agree that for the retail price there are more impressive offerings but I paid $900 for my Shearwater Hot Rods. Best bargain I've found, and belive me I look for bargains.

The Meadowlark speakers tend toward lively, detailed and fast, at least to my ears.

The Shearwater Hot Rods are SENSATIONAL. One of my favorite all time speakers.
