In Reply to: RE: Which speakers fit my sound description? posted by eyedrop on August 08, 2016 at 19:58:49
contradictory recommendations because your description contains several contradictory descriptions such as warm, mellow, neutral, synergistic details, laid back, accuracy, un-muffled and clear, etc.
Your description could lead to anywhere from a Vandersteen to a PMC monitor. The description of what you are seeking strikes me as a collection of characteristics which are not focused enough to be useful. :(
You want mellow, get a Vandersteen or Daedalus (reviewed) or Tannoy
You want neutral, go with Vivid or Lockport or Wilson
Synergistic details, do an electrostatic like the Sanders or Magnepan
Accuracy? That is wide open to debate among us; try Magico, KEF, or Tidal or
Unmuffled and clear; do a horn like Acapella or hybrid like mbl or Venture
Many years ago I had The One speaker, the perfect speaker which did it ALL. But, it broke and I threw it out. ;)
The greatest impediment to advancing an audiophile system is the audiophile.

They also don't sound like any I'm familiar with.
in my mind after Sanders? :)
In my haste I did make it sound like they are technically similar. Mea cupla; as a former Maggie owner and current owner of Kingsound King III ESL that's unforgiveable! ;) Good catch.
When you say they (Maggies) don't sound like any other, that's true, especially with certain ones. Heh, heh, heh...

So you had the prefect speaker but threw it out and can't remember the name? You've ruined everything!
I once had the prefect hamburger but I eat it and now it's gone too.
Yeah he really kind of threw a thesaurus load of descriptive words out there for review.
