HOW TO EVALUATE SPEAKERS
Speakers are by far the most important part of any system, plus make a bigger difference than any other component. Since choosing the right speakers can seem daunting, we have many high value models here for you to audition. It's amazing that some people buy speakers without ever hearing them. An internet review doesn't let you know if you'll like it in your room, with your music and amp.
Bring well recorded LPs or CDs that you know well. Ideally the recording should have voice, piano or other acoustic instruments. I don't recommend DVDs with noisy explosions. We know what a voice or acoustic instruments should sound like. Often a movie soundtrack is created in a recording studio and never existed in real life.
Listen for each instrument, both individually and together. Accurate speakers let you hear every performer. Each voice or instrument should sound natural without over emphasis. Tonal balance should be natural without being boomy or shrill. With a good recording, the performers will seem to be left, center or right and three dimensionally placed in front or back of each other. A speaker should not sound like the music is trapped in a box, but have three-dimensional imaging.
Some speakers that sound bright on first listening can be annoying or fatiguing after a longer time. Most less expensive amps, receivers or CDs sound bright, so it's best not to use them with a bright speaker. A tube amp can help tame bright speakers.
Unfortunately, some stores deliberately make the selection process more difficult. The rest of the system should be in the same price range as the speakers. Ideally, the speakers cost about half of the entire system price. We use amps of similar cost to demonstrate speakers. Some stores use amps for 10, 20 or 50 times more than the speakers. The super amps with plain speakers are like putting real maple syrup on sawdust. The sweetness can disguise the sound of speakers that most people find not acceptable with their amps.
Some stores boost the bass and volume on the speakers they most want to sell. Some stores have an expensive sub playing with budget speakers, so they sound far better than they really are. Unfortunately, these stores won't tell you that the sub or amps that cost more than many cars are playing. Sometimes despite many requests, they won't let you hear their speakers without the sub or mega amps.
People have traded in many B&W, JBL, Bose, Infinity, Klipsch, AR, etc.

Most speaker companies buy their parts from a few generic companies. All our speaker companies design and manufacture every component in their own factory. You get better sounding, more durable speakers that cost less, since you don't pay for multiple companies' markups. We choose our speakers for superior sound quality + best value, not for the biggest ad budget. We've tried 20 speaker brands that didn't pass our high standards.
