RE: I like him, too, but

I don't hear modern designs that equal some of the old designs in a broad array of sonic characteristics. And I find that dynamics are not really a strength of any modern design other than those that essentially mimic the designs older horns.
It's not just dynamics or "you are there presence" that old designs excel at...along with the dynamics and presence the best old designs have a naturalness that new speakers do not, a sense of ease, a "directness" of the sound, that I just cannot find in newer speakers, and at this point I do not care. I'll just live with those vintage speakers that sound more like real music to me.
