Am I a Spendor guy???

All my serious listening is classical.

I love nothing more than the faithful reproduction of the tone colors of unamplified instruments (the wood body of the violin and cello, the felt pad excting the sinewy strings of a piano).

I hate nothing more than steely shrillness on violins or a glare on a soprano's voice.

YET, I hate bloated, indistinct, overly warm, billowy lower mids and upper bass (what I gather some think of as "musical").

For years, much of what I've read about Spendors have led me to believe they may be the speaker for me. But I have never even seen one (much less a pair!).

So do I sound like I might be a Spendor guy? And if so, should I consider just the Classic line or the newer Sxe line, too. Thanks so much for any comments.
