^^ Hope she's willing to accept that the speakers be placed well out from the walls and not crammed in there somewhere.
At least a foot from each wall. You think they need more space due to rear porting?
Oh if you want furniture grade speakers, look at Sonus Faber. They set the standard imo.
True but I would also add in the better Tannoys as well...probably Martin Logan CLSs as well.
af - these or klipsch bookshelves? don't know model# - just looking for overall co. comparison...
Anyone has experience with Martin Logan Source or what appears to be their powered cousin the Purity? I'm considering upgrading from Ascend 340 to something better and more attractive. Since these are going in the living room, Mrs. Dmax has an input on what the new speakers will look like and she likes the aesthetics of these. FWIW, if I had to choose without her input, I would seriously consider Salk Song towers.

Not a fan. The original CLS and even better IIZs were amazing electrostats. The hybrids have not been successful, IMO. I've heard most of them, some extensively. The MLs do well with the WAF, however.
Go with Ushers over the Klipsch. Much better sound in my experience.

thnx - you da man
Have you listened to them? As already mentioned, the port and dipole precludes near-wall placement. --Andre
Friend has the IIZs in a gorgeous dark walnut. Superb sound. Powered by an Audio Research VT-100.
