UPDATED SUNDAY: Turning up the tweeters gave a huge improvement!
I just replaced the flimsy speaker connectors with decent 5 way binding posts. While doing that I had the chance to inspect the woofers (beautiful, heavy cast frames) and internal construction. The sides are veneered inside and out! There is a quality of fit and finish that we rarely see outside of the high end anymore.
Soundwise, they are very nice with no obvious flaws. They are very well balanced. The level controls are generous in their range, and almost any taste in high end balance can be catered for.
Please remember the Altec Model Ones as well, with the same beautiful balance in a smaller but equally excellent enclosure.
Please e-mail me to arrange a listen.
