My gosh, Bill is right. I forgot one of the best speakers of all time that I didn't include on my list. I did own a pair of
Metaphor loudspeakers which were, as I recall, really terrific speakers.
I remember that I didn't have them too long - 6 months or so, but enjoyed them tremendously.
I traded them back to the dealer I bought them from - Steve Campbell in Huntsville, Alabama, for a pair of Crosby modified Quad ESL 63 speakers, just because . . . I wanted to try something new - and looking at my list, you might surmise that I often wanted to try something "new".
The Metaphors were built by one
William Peugh II of Goldmund fame, later the world class expert on all things Sonus Faber and author of many remarkable posts in the "Friendly Forum for High End Audio", otherwise known as
Audio Aficionado, under the nom de plume "
metaphacts". and known to all as just plain
Bill.
There were two versions of the Metaphor speaker and I don't remember the model name of the one I owned but it was the larger of the two.
Below is a picture of the Metaphor, and what a beauty to behold. Looked good, sounded great!, And, Bill, I didn't forget the speaker, I just forgot to put it on my list.
