On a quest for high fidelity
Hey all,
I recently acquired a pair of these in beautiful condition with the original stands. I was a little worried about getting these because of the reviews online, many saying they're not as good as the later series (yes, these are the originals with the copper tweeters), but I figured what the heck, they're iconic - I might as well snag them.
I hooked them up last night and first impressions are fairly positive. They are silky smooth sounding with a velvety texture to the midrange. I've heard this sound before! It brought back memories of the KEF 107s I used to own. I've been looking for a nice bookshelf speaker for a while so this fits the bill nicely.
Anyway, I'll get some more hours into them before concluding whether I really do like them or not but I wanted to ask if anyone knew how to access the crossovers? It seems like the easiest way is from the front? If anyone has a pair and knows how let me know.
Thanks!
Oh and, I'll certainly put up some pictures later.
