Agreed, two good examples.

In the old days, it was true of Meridian and Linn too, don't know now, haven't heard them in too long. It's always easier to do it with one designer/manufacturer, but it can be done with several if you're willing to spend the time. Blue Circle hybrids and Brystons seem to be going the same way as Harbeths, though Gilbert Yeung would quarrel with that! Manley and Reynaud works, Blue Circle and Reynaud works, Audiomat and Reynaud works. And there was a time when Krell and B&W worked, though that was in B&W Matrix days, don't know about now. What kind of marriage do we prefer? One where the two parties fight to a passionate standstill or one where they agree from the start? Your call. I think it's harder when a speaker, like Spendors, sound wonderful but need something to help them along. What do you do? Kick 'em? Love 'em up? Dunno. Best results I've heard with Spendors have been good push-pulls but not the kind with those nasty 6550's. I'd love to have the time and funds to find a good husband for SP 1/2's. Never could do it here.
