Hi Dennis,
Many thanks for your post, very interesting indeed.
Some years ago in Melbourne, a customer, now using LF100s, had a very large pair of 600 watt monoblocks. These had long warranty, beautifully made, very heavy, and incredibly expensive.
We played a few CDs from his very nice CD player and huge, four way Jamo speakers.
Nice sound, but a bit diffuse in the bass, no real sound field to speak off, a bit raggedy at the top end.
Then we put in the LF100 to test them out.
Bass was far stronger, tighter, and articulate. Sound field was defined, broad, deep, and even tall. Top end was crystal clear. It was a surprise just how good it all was. I was as happy as my host; it came as a revelation to me as I have never had the resources to test my products against the best in the market.
Theo sold his large, expensive monos, bought the LF100s, and God is in his heaven. It seems you have come to the same point, and I thank you for taking the time to tell the forum!
Nice autumn weather in Melbourne, soon the cool season will be arriving. Trust you and the family are well, thanks again for the post,
Cheers,
Hugh
