Paul from Tampa –
I am not a bookshelf/desktop speaker type of person. I heard an original pair of LS3/5’s back in the late 70’s, when most consumer type speakers were trending towards a larger size. I recall being somewhat amazed at the rich sound that came from such a small speaker. That was the only pair I ever saw/heard. Didn’t remember what they were called until I came across this kit, and searched the history of the originals and saw the pictures. This intrigued me into trying this kit. I already own a pair of Jeff Bagby designed, Fusion-12 Tempest speakers and I love them, so there was some confidence going in.
I have to say, these little speakers will not disappoint. I think they sound better from what I can recall of the originals. I have them playing along with a 12″ Ultimax subwoofer and they sound amazing, addicting even. These are going to be a favorite for a life time. If anything sounds better than these, pound for pound, one wouldn’t/shouldn’t care. Jeff Bagby knocked one out of the park with this design.
Also have to comment on the kit as delivered from Meniscus. Very complete with everything you need. This is my 2nd kit from them. It would be very hard to beat the price with all that’s included. Very satisfied with their service.
