I have a pair of the Violins and am very impressed by them. I came from a pair of 802n and other than losing some bottom end, I think they compete really well. The Violins are 2 way and if you really listen you can tell there is just a hint of a hole or suck out in the midrange. That said, having heard the Cellos at AXPONA, they are a terrific speaker and one of the best I have heard. They are very musical, and I think thats about the best compliment I can offer.
Time for some new speakers
So am trying to decide if some models I have researched are worth inclusion and audition. Will have to drive several hundred miles to audition a couple of them so I am looking for thoughts and feedback if anyone has heard them or especially if someone has heard more than one; theirs thoughts on how they compared. Considering the following: KEF 205/2, B&W 802D, Lawrence Audio Cello, Salk Audio Sound Scape 8. List was compiled based on reviews and all of them, having a small foot print (except B&W), resonable bass and looks that I believe my wife could live with. Live in downtown condo with neighbors both sides but do have a good size living room (20 x 24 x17). Front end is Hegel and source is oppo 103, mac mini and sonus for causual listening
