What speakers have you owned ?

Fair enough, I can't talk I've had two pairs of the damn things

My first pair were active but I converted them back to passive, there is a treble adjustment jumper on the crossover but I can't remember where mine were set. They also had the upgraded "3-bar tweeter" & Ku-stone bases... Sounded pretty nice. The second pair used the mesh style tweeter & didn't have Ku-stone bases, man they sounded poor.

Loads of stuff, but Shahinian Arc's the best by far. Played great classical, rock, Eminem... everything.

That tweeter with mesh should have been stillborn. The version with bars was so much smoother and clearer. Not a huge issue with Keilidh's as the bass could dominate everything else (Ku-Stone stands essential IMO), but Kabers were a different noisebox altogether

I have lived with my original edition Arcam Ones for 30 Years. never wanted anything else until I heard the Magnepan MMG that is now in my main system. Now messing about with Mission 760i.

Heard a demo pair of NVA Cubes back inthe 80's and have never forgotten the impression they made. Still the only speaker I hope to be able to get, one day.

Kazam has a pair of those mk1 Cube 1s (sans grills which I can supply if wanted) I think he wants to sell, PM him, they are cheap for what they are. Far less than the new ones.

Sorely tempted Doc. But my current listening room is tiny, and I doubt that It can do justice to the Cubes acoustics.
