Your favorite musical non fatiguing speakers?

Larrybou,

Yes I am Very familiar with the Parsifal, I've owned them for 3 years and love them. I was just saying that I've heard them in one of the best rooms in the world with incredible gear, so I know what they are capable of. I would throw 40k at them before replacing them.

I also use a Rel Stadium III sub, when in the mood. It blends perfectly and adds the feel that only the Stadium III can add (IME better than JL series). Try to listen to one if you can because it will add another level to the enjoyment.

Glad you like them. I've had the Museaus cables and found them very dull and dark. I did like some qualities like smooth, tuneful in the midrange and bass, but I currently have Nordost Frey 2 and 1 Hiemdall 2, 2 Valhalla, with QX 4 and QB 8 purifiers. I'm not a cable snob but did some work for a rep in the past and respect what Nordost adds to the experience.

Still OHM Walsh. Can tune into them for hours and still hate to turn things off.

I'm thinking the Museaus cables in the Parcifals probably ARE too dark. I've never been a big fan of AQ but the AQ Rocket 33's I'm temporarily using seem to be a good match. The treble is bit lacking in refinement but otherwise they're quite good. Probably going further up the AQ line could help.

I'm receiving acoustic Zen, Cardas and Wyre World cables from Cable Company today. I'll try the Nordost Audience-24 and higher end AQ's next.

I ran Stealth cables with my Parsifal's, they worked well for me. The Nordost were just a tad too thin sounding for my tastes. The Stealth had almost as much speed and resolution, but were just a tad more musical than the Nordost. As usual, YMMV. I also heard the Parsifal's work well in a system with Acoustic Zen Absolute cables.

JMC - I'll see if Cable Co carries the stealth. What model were these?

BJesien - I'll keep the Stadium III's in mind after we leave the townhouse next year. They're already too penetrating as it is for our current setup. It's a luxury townhouse with supposedly very solid walls but I still think I'm pushing my luck.
