Just listened to Marten Quintet 5.
You should really consider them as well. I also heard them at the Munich show this year. They are a really good speaker and it's quite small. One of the best speakers I heard at that show. The resolution ,as is important for you, is among the best I ever have heard. They are at the same price range as some of those mentioned in this thread. https://www.marten.se/mingus/

Guys, I have also liked the Marten's in the past when I've heard them, however I have to bring out the point that they have screwed their long time distributor by selling cheap out the back door. Some of you may not care about this type of business practice, but if you were a small shop and got screwed out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, you too would be upset. I can't find the link, but you can Google it to see how they screwed the US distributor after over ten years of doing business together I believe it was.
Again, I'm sorry as I'm not trying to be a jerk, but personally when I do business with say a Vandersteen dealer, I know they won't screw me and I know that the value of my purchase will stay strong til the day I have to or want to sell.. Thanks for reading and feel free to flame me, but I did check with this story with a close friend in the industry, who's name would be well known and they said this is true. Thanks again. |

Received my KXR and MXR's. Just installed and got them going. Only listening at low volume levels at the moment, but swear I can already hear a deeper sound stage.
Will remove QB9 when QX-5 Twenty arrives and will place the QX-5 in cabinet.

Outstanding. Glad to hear. You will love them once they burn in. Bass is going to become MUCH better, I promise, lol. I'm going to see Alex and hear the QX5 for the first time on Saturday at Audio Connection. I'm so excited as I have mine on order too. Did you get in touch with the owner at Tamber in Houston yet? When you do, tell him Pete from CT sent you. He'll laugh. A great guy for sure and a wonderful Vandersteen dealer. Keep us posted please.
