Speakers that turn your analytical mind off?

Shw06,
I've listened to lots of music(being a media dealer), but couldn't figure out which one I'd be able to listen during the shower.
Mind my curiosity? Suggestions?"

Get some marine or outdoor speakers and mount them about ear level on the wall opposite the shower head.

JBL L-7 moddified!, incredible life like,tone to die for, imageing is shocking, the speakers are 5 degrees toed in toward the middle of the room, when looking at them, they look straight with no toe in at all, till this day, I have never seen or heard a speaker do this type of toe in for best performance, took me three months of set up heart ache to come to these conclusions, paid off in spades!, 30hz to 27khz 4-way bi-amp speakers,The first to ever have inside fireing woofers, A JBL invention that many of the best has copied, A legendary classic.

Magico S5's when mostly or fully run in, properly set up & well matched with accompanying equipment for good synergy (eg: Vitus, Dartzeel, CJ Gat/Art or Pass XA.8 series). But get all that right and you stop thinking about speakers and simply enjoy music!

Schw06,

I recently had an opportunity to audition some Mosaic interconnects and speaker cables in my system. I suspect they were the same interconnects as yours. The speaker cables were the entry level ones, but I wish I could have heard the top-of-the-line ones. I posted my thoughts about how the interconnects played in my system on my main system page. I didn't leave the speaker cables in my system long enough to form much of an opinion so I didn't post about them.

I also had an opportunity a couple of weekends ago to listen to a system with those same Mosaic interconnects and speaker cables, Essence Jasper mono blocks, and Intuitive Design Denali speakers. It sounded really nice. That system was doing some things that my system doesn't, but I think my system extracts more delicacy from certain recordings. Anyway, from the combination of my recent experience of fiddling around with those interconnects and hearing what I guess are older, bigger cousins of your speakers, if I were trying to take your system in a less analytical direction I'd first consider the interconnects and speaker cables rather than the speakers themselves. I've never heard your speakers but if they are indeed cousins of the ones I heard, meaning a Dale Pitcher speaker, I wouldn't be too quick to change them out of the system.

Cheers,

John

Or do what I do. Wrap your favorite speakers in cheap plastic garbage bags and listen near-field. Brings a whole new meaning to "a liquid sound."

But Robsker said :

It seems to me that it is systems --- not speakers alone (or even speakers primarily) --- that can draw you in or turn you off."

I would extend his thought to include the room environment. The same speakers in a living room will sound differently when in say, a bathroom.
