Transparency and integrity is all!

Because other techniques are less affordable or/and more complicated to handle. But honestly: some of the non-dynamics have their reasons to be.

As it was three years ago, it is now. I own the same speakers and have no upgrade plans after listening a couple times each year I still made a good selection!

I own Magnepan 3.6's. I also have a pair of Magnepan MMG's that I use for surrounds in my home theater. There is nothing better (or bigger) than Magnepan's. I love them.

MG20.1 These replace B&W Silver Signatures

Don't have room for the more esoteric stuff.

MY Neweform Research R630s are the highlight of my system!

Magnepan 1.6's

Apogee is dead. Long live Apogee! Studio Grands, still the best.

When ribbons are done correctly (Apogee) nothing in a box can beat them.

Very good sound, one of the best if you have gooood amp. Apogee is the best.

I own Apogee Divas which are still alive and kicking thanks to Graz in Australia providing spares. Full details are on my website http://www.apogeespeakers.totalserve.co.uk/

Infinity Renassiance 90 with Planer Dynamic Tweeter and Midrange.

I use Paradigm Studio 100s, a Paradigm Reference CC, a Servo 15 Subwoofer and Atoms for the surrounds in a five channel/two channel system. I drive all of this with a Rotel RB991 on the front channels and a Denon 4800 for the surrounds. My sole rationale is that this configuration is cost effective and sounds good with a wide variety of 2 channel and multi-channel sources.

Apogee speakers continue to be the best sounding speakers both for listeners on a budget and listeners looking for the best in high end. Maybe one of these days there will be a second coming for Apogee, so everyone else will be able to share in the Apogee experience.

Since 1991, when I purchased my Apogee Duetta Signatures (full range ribbon speakers), I have changed virtually all of the components and wires around them. They changed my thinking about the reproduction of recorded music back in 1991. Now, they continue to amaze me every day in 2001! Rich M.

The different technologies are nice but it is the sound that counts no matter how it is done.

Though finicky about room set-up and installation, nothings better then listening to Electrostatic panels. I love my Martin Logan's

We that are faithful to Apogee have found a saviour in Austrailia. Graeme Keet(Graz) is making replacement ribbons that have exceeded the original quality if Apogee. Cheers

apogee ribbons rock

Apogee Full Range

We've owned the maggie 1.6's for 18 hours now, and they are wonderful!

It seems that cone speakers are becoming increasingly well-designed, as far as esthetics are concerned. Speakers like the Revel Studios or the Linn AV5140 sound fantastic and still look good with the rest of the furniture. Everything else looks as if it just came off the set of a Stanley Kubrick film (horns) or looks as if it served as an office partiton in a former life (electrostats).

Apogee forever!

Apogee Hybrids Value for Money

Full range ribbon can not be beat!

Full range electrostatics can be very rewarding especially given enough horsepower. One down side is that they can be too reveiling and some of your favorite discs don't sound so good, but the good ones are very good. I love them.
