It was a pleasure to read the review from a "real" person with a "normal" setup in his own home, and was particularly impressed with his comments.
It's just a thought, but maybe this type of review can be incorporated into a regular column which might be of real interest to many Stereophile readers as it probably is applicable to the majority of them.
Read Stephen Mejias and Sam Tellig's columns/ blogs.
It's great to hear a comment from another room. I can't imagine having a system that only sounds good in a sweet spot. Sweet spots are great, don't get me wrong, had someone at my place last night that once he got in it said "the music is all around me". I think that's wonderful but the true test of a music producing system is when you can feel that presence of others in your home as you are going about your business.
it is indeed cool!
I confess that I bought a sound system completely blind, based solely on what I read in the reviews. I was somewhat incredulous because my budget was not much. I have a Denon X3100 ($800), and $1.85 p/f cable. My room is an enclosed room 12w x 15 x 9h. I have heard B&W, KEF, Martin Logan, Totem, Definitive, PSB, Monitor Audio, and other very expensive speaker brand... But I have to say that I've never heard sound like this: so real, so clear and so pure.... I can't imagine how it would sound with a $3,000 Cambridge AZURE 751R v2 receiver. My system consists of: 2 Triton Seven, 2 AON (rear) 2, 1 SuperCenter X, 1 Sub-woofer SVS SB-2000), and I simply LOVE IT, LOVE IT, and LOVE IT...Did I said that I LOVE IT???
I've had the T1s for 3 months now. Owned 7 nice speaker brands last 10 years (Tannoy, B&W, Tyler, Vienna, Sanders, etc). These GoldenEar's are absolute category killers. I'm getting smooth neutral sound with everything, at every volume.
