I have owned different Bozaks for over 54 years. Two pairs of Symphony, a pair of Grands, Concerto Grosso and B-313s. I added super tweeters to the Grands and Symphony many years ago, tri amping the Grands and bi amping the Symphony. I will admit their sound is dated with issues in the HF and thats why I added super tweeters. The bass by bi-amping using direct coupled amps improves by magnitudes. I still audition speakers looking for replacements. The best was the Snell A7 phantom, but being point source speaker just didn't have the definition unless in a small room. The only speaker than has been a consistent winner over the grands is the Mcintosh XR 290. But as with my Grands a little room equalization is required with the need of another 6 to 8 db of power. Another issue is there isn't a center channel available like my Low boy 4005 to match the 290. So I keep looking. Magicos sound great in a small room, too. But again being a point source speaker they won't work in my space. Modern Mac speakers tweeters just turn me off and though they make a great line array that one quality removes them from the list. I guess if I were a screen and a projector I could get by with 3 XRT 28's behind the screen, when its down. But I'm love with my Pioneer 151 Plasma, so thats not an option.
For over 20 years our company made professional recordings producing LP's and CD's for customers. Thats why I have Bozaks rather than Altec or JBL monitors. They produce the sound more faithfully of the live concert. It didn't matter if I used AKG, Telefunken, Neumann, Sony or Altec condenser tube or SS mics, using tube or SS mixers or tube or SS Ampex professional recorders. . Sure the tube recordings could get a little warm, but they could be so life like, not a studio sound. I never heard that with any other speaker than my Bozaks. Until I do I will keep my Bozaks with no regrets. When I hear Sheffield, some Reference and Telarc recordings I get the same feeling. Recordings of North Texas university wind band shock me sometimes reminding me of the sound I experienced as I was a member of a Symphonic band and sang in Choirs. Some commercial US Marine band recordings remind me of my recordings I boot legged when they and the Navy Band were in town. There is just no other speaker that can bring back the memories of actually being at a live performance. I'm not after replication of what is being produced in a studio or on a sound stage, though they can be very enjoyable. I want the live experience of an un-amplified live performance, be it outdoors, indoors ,on stage, in a concert hall, auditorium, or compromised field house or Gym. My recordings of the Basie, Kenton, Ray Charles, and other big bands are so close to being like you're there the thrill never goes away. So thats why I still have Bozaks. I admit with each upgrade in amps etc the sound gets closer. I'm back to using all Mcintosh with Urei and Crown processors. . I am about ready to fire up the Room perfect of the MX151 and retire the Crowns. Maybe after Xmas.
