Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

" 'The closest approach,' except for realistic deep bass and realistic extreme dynamics"

Surely you jest.

QUADs are great, among the best, for string quartets, lute songs, etc.

Not at all "the closest approach" for large pipe organ, or large orchestra pieces or even very dynamic grand piano.

I have heard nearly all the QUADs (just not the newest taller one), and I helped set up a pair of Alexandria IIs and helped dial them in, and measured a remarkably clean 95 dBA/slow weighted from 20 feet away on some electric blues I was pleased to learn Peter McGrath carried around with him.

Not with QUADs do you get that.

Some people, and not just Yanks, have large rooms they want to fill with undistorted realistic sound.

That doesn't make them "Crazy." And I am sure Cee-Lo agrees!
