Default Project Array 1000

Two Dot, Well like I already said the 1000's blow away the 250Ti's which sounded very much like the McIntosh LS-360's. I can say these are the best horn speakers I have ever heard! Not saying the best ever speakers because I've heard Wilsons! They do not come across as sounding honky as some horn type speakers do. They are very 3D in imaging. I was listening to Nora Jones all morning and I couldn't believe how real these sound. These sound about as much like you sitting in a club listening to live music. OK, now everybody has in their heads what the perfect speaker sounds like. I'm a JBL guy! In my family I always listened to music through JBL's. When I worked in audio sales (1989 and 90) the store I worked at didn't sell JBL's, ( in the US by then JBL was pretty much gone as far as the high end) but sold B&W, Martin Logan, McIntosh, Klipsch, Boston, and M&K. To be honest none of those did for me what JBL did. Given my pick of any speaker at any cost I'd still go with JBL only it would be the Everest. Being semi retired costs must be kept down so at a price point I can go with, these are what I like, the Array 1000's. Cheers, Frank
