My criticism of AD's criticism of the high cost of most units at audio shows is certainly DEADON. Art is the one who can dish it out, but cannot take it! For those of us who have a mortgage, wife, and children, Art's system is WAY out of our price range, and seems crazily expensive. I HAVE heard Art's former favorite speaker, the Audio Note E, driven by expensive Audio Note tubes, and was NOT impressed (yes, as Serinus was not impressed). Art has since moved on to a $12,000 bass reflex design. Remember the column where Art blasted the phony bass inherent in reflex speakers? I usually prefer sealed designs, but many reflex speakers have bass that sounds realistic if properly driven and setup. The KEF LS 50 is one such speaker IMO. Does the LS 50's bass match my Fulton J's bass? No. Does the LS 50's treble match that of the Fulton's electrostatic treble? No. But the midrange of the LS 50 beats both my Fulton J and my Dunlavy SC IV by enough to offset the "weakness" at the high and low end. Perhaps I should change the midrange speaker, the Fulton 80, in the Fulton Modular with the KEF LS 50. It looks quite easy.
