Your Dream Speakers

I know, just amazing sound. I still remember what I was listening to - a bunch of Accuphase electronics matched with the C1s in an audio store in Maryland. We were listening to "Just Workin' It" by Mark Knopfler. I wished I would have just bitten the bullet and gotten them but I had to stop somwhere. They are more like, for me at least, a "realistic" dream speaker. I am seriously considering getting a pair if I can sell my Contour S3.4s (not for sale yet). Don't get me wrong, I love my 3.4s but the space I am going into is a little tighter and a tower would get in the way more.
 
Wow. I don't know. I absolutely love my s3.4's and have no desire at all to upgrade.

I think if money were no issue, I'd keep my setup and travel the world like Razz. :happy-smileygiantred:
 
Mine would have to be Altec/Soundhound's home theater setup. Such clarity and soooo dynamic.

I'm not sure if these were the exact model, but the best speakers I've heard were some Linn's, IIRC $12,000 each. The salon was powering them with McIntosh tube amps that had almost as much volume as the speakers (they were actually similar to the Monitor Audios I ended up with).

Very, Very Nice, and like cars you should never test-drive anything you can't afford... :cry:
 
Eggelston Andras, heard a pair a while back and was hooked. WAY out if my price range though so the Madisound MTMs I have are perfect!

While I can see others circling like sharks contemplating expediting the process.
