. . . were writers for Stereophile. They rarely named names of gear they didn't like, but expressed a strong preference for lively, dynamic sounding speakers over excessively "polite, refined" ones. The words I used, and you quoted, were all from actual comments posted by those critics about speakers heard at various hi-fi shows.
Given your original post, I think you should be looking in general for speakers with high rated sensitivity (90dB or better) and benign impedance (not getting much below 6 Ohms at any frequency). Those are the ones that will jump to life and rock out with modest amplification. Some brands mentioned that fit those criteria were JBL, Klipsch, and Cerwin Vega.
