My S6 v2 are the best box speakers I have owned in 30 yrs. They are ultra smooth top to bottom with bass good to 30hz, as low as my neighbor’s v5 Studio 100 but with more kick and definition - S6 woofers have much bigger magnets! And that neodymium driven beryllium tweeter is frosting on cake. It is faster and more precise than German titaniums yet delicate like an Italian silk dome giving the S6 lots of air and a balance less bright than the v5 Studio series and newer Paradigms, though the speaker partners best with tubes or neutral to warmish SS. If you listen to phono use a LOMC with a boron cantilever and be amazed at the detail from these speakers. Cabinet finish (maple) is gorgeous and as good as I’ve seen on hi end speakers. Not cheap but worth every penny of their price.

None. Only price.

sound stage is wide and deep. these are the v.3 signature 6 model. utterly smooth top to bottom frequency response. the ambiance of the room recorded in seems to be present, the echo, etc.. leaves you there just enjoying the moment. the build is first rate, mine are the maple cabinets. Gave my ref. studio 40s to my son, who is also happy with his new system upgrade. rest of my system includes roksan cd, ariston audio RD11 turntable, audio research SP 3A pre-amp and audio research D-300 amp
