I reviewed the fl6 and the fl8 they have such a natural sound and great detail from all types of music its like rediscovering your cd collection over again!!!!! If you can afford the fl8 then go for them I have heard the new models the S seris and they sound the same just different porting out the back of the speaker set up musical fidelity xa-1 bi amp xa50 meridian 507 cd ecosse cables

Accurate, Awesome imaging, beautiful woodwork. Small footprint

Bass

These speakers are a work of art. Imaging, and soundstage are wonderful. Extremely accurate, and real sounding. If your looking for a speaker to slam rock and roll with strong bass these are not for you. They roll off very fast below 60hz from what I can hear. But if you listen to jazz, classical, bluegrass, piano music ect...these are a good choice I suspect these babies sound great with tube gear. Cabinets are beautiful woodwork

I have owned these about 6weeks now & remained pleased with their very natural and non-fatiguing sound. These are for a 2nd system, living room use - so a small footprint and good looks were important. I compared these to the B&W CLS (2nd choice, but sometimes were too in-your-face), and Meadowlark Shearwater & Kestrel. I suspect the Shearwater HR version was the best of the bunch, but decided I did not want to spend this much. The Kestrel, though throwing a big soundstage, often sounded congested with inability to portray adequate detail. Beside, the finish on the kestrels looked kind of cheesy (though the cabinet was exceedingly solid). All of these comparisons were in my home with a Muse 100 amp and Sonographe preamp and Marantz CDP. The Spendors are beautiful, furniture quality speakers that are just very pleasing to listen to. Vocals sound fantastic, detail is good, soundstage is better than the B&W. I wish they had more bass, but overall I am pleased. I'll give them a 4 out of 5 for sound, 5/5 for WAF.
