I’ve never heard a pair of speakers as large as Bryston’s new Model T10s in my listening room, and the experience was revelatory. They were so powerful, well controlled, and evenly balanced that I can imagine them as an endgame purchase for many people.”
Two grand per pair is a popular price point for speakers. My favorite speakers in that range are the Axiom M60 towers. They’re built like a tank in Canada. In early 2024 I decided to boot out all of our Chinese speakers, along with almost all of our Chinese electronics. There are a few low price points in electronics where we have…

In 1975 I bought my first pair of Magnepans, the single panel MG2s for $700. They changed my relationship with the audio hobby. They are to blame for taking me from modest “using” into full blown addiction! My first speakers were Advents. They were good for the price because of respectable driver blending.
