    they are all different in their sound and presentation, but i could easily live with any of them. each has a sound thats easy to love imo.

    Interesting - I could not live with any of those brands - if I could I would be living with them. Art Dudley noted in a review that over his time reviewing which is about 40 years he has heard about 14 loudspeakers that he could live.

    I am more of a speaker slut than Art so i could probably live with about 15 (but in half his years).

    Unfortunately some of those excellent speakers that would make my list like Soundlabs, Acapella, Trenner and Freidl the speakers are too big for my space or far too expensive or both.

    Which illustrates what a spoiled sh!t Art Dudley is. I guess he'd kill himself if he had to live with my speakers, or yours, RGA. I wouldn't miss him, I'd just keep on enjoying the music.

    Art is a fan of Audio Note E speakers. He owns a pair and pairs them with tube electronics. I like Art and he is a musician.
