This was the first CD I have purchased in about 20 years. After listening to it the past couple days, almost on a loop, I can why it makes just about every list of must own audiophile CDs.
This is a must own, if you want to truly test your system’s capabilities!

Where I Purchased - Front porch, about 15 miles away
Listed Price - $100
Price Paid - $100
Condition - 75%
These came with the original packaging but the cabinets have some rather large wear spots. Woofer, tweeter, grills and corners are all in good shape, which is the important stuff.
Quality - 8.0
The cabinets feel rock solid and the wrap feels nice and thick and well attached.
If I was going to complain about the quality of these speakers, the area they are lacking is the binding posts. That was my same complaint with the 600M’s but it was worth repeating.
Seeing what Fluance was able to accomplish in this price range, has made me a little more picky.
Sound - 8.0
These sound very nice and have nice bass extension. I just felt that the 600M’s and the MA Silver RS1 speakers are more refined but they should be, since they cost twice as much as these.
Sound great and can get loud, on a budget!
MSRP Rating - 8.5
These are a bargain at the MSRP price of $298. They hold up nicely with speakers costing more, that’s for sure.
We’re they able to hang with the 600M’s? I would say mostly but the 600M’s are way more refined but they should be at double the MSRP.
Aesthetics - 8.5
Again, I’m a big fan of the Klipsch “Reference” copper but the plastic woofer just can’t compete with the quality and looks of the Cerametallic Cones.
The cabinet is nicely sized and I think the grills are beautiful.
Price Paid Value - 8.0
This was a great deal and these would be perfect for those with a darker room or if they aren’t too particular about condition.
The damage was going affect my price paid but I knew this going in. Still a great deal!
Average Guy HiFi Rating - 41.5/50 = 83%
Final Thoughts -
These are great little speakers that will get you 80% the performance of speakers costing double or even many times more.
They have nice bass, clear highs and solid decent mid-range. At my price of $100, these are hard to beat and easily worth the price of admission.
