The Authoritative Review of the AR 4x - with measurements




By speaker design authority Dennis Murphy [link below]. That'll tell you almost everything you need to know about them.

My take:
Muffled highs, together with a shouty midrange. Poor transient response. Very poor time domain integration. Poor driver intergration [but on par with most other old time, "vintage" speakers]. Poor soundstaging, and a dated, music-stuffed-in-a-box, old time "vintage" sound.
