Art Dudley's column in the October Stereophile "The Virtues of Vintage" is one of his best. He does a great job of describing how the sound of some vintage speakers, ones dating back to the 1940s and earlier, is unequalled by modern speakers. Along the way, he also manages to work in some comments on vintage mandolins, fly fishing rods and rugs. A very good read. |

Ah, yes, Jim. Without treatment, that just cannot be a good room. With treatment, no problem. |

The ones you speak about are mainly 3+-way speakers with very unfriendly load characteristics. |
