Stereophile review of Monitor Audio Silver RS6

Posted by hesson11 on February 15, 2006 at 10:32:07:

Has anyone else read this RJ Reina review? Certainly is glowing, especially for a $999 speaker. Excerpts:

"I could find not a single shortcoming—no deviation from neutrality, or any other cmpromise that I would normally expect to find in a cost-constrained design...The flawless and exceptional Silver RS6 gave me more listening pleasure than any other loudspeaker I have ever reviewed for Stereophile. In my more than 20 years of reviewing, I have not reviewed an audio component that produced greater sound quality per dollar."

I was going to be a wise guy and ask whether this $999 speaker would then be placed in Stereophile's Class A. But I won't do that. But I'm curious to know if anyone has had any experience with this speaker (or its earlier iterations) that may tend to affirm or deny Mr. Reina's findings. I've never heard any MA speaker. THANKS.
