Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

I've found the Fostexes I've heard to be much more palatable than the Lowthers

My data sets in both cases are small, but the standard error is low in both cases as well :-) I've heard Lowthers sound scary good on choral SACD's (Gregorian chant) but basically unlistenable on highly-processed "pop" music (e.g., Hendrix) on vinyl.

The Fostexes are honest enough, but still keep most things listenable. Since I like to listen to music, not equipment, they seem like a far better real-world value.

I have, and use, a pair of FE-207E's in bass reflex cabinets (built by Bottlehead DaveJ here in Massachusetts).
