Advice on what loudspeakers to buy...

Hoping not to be a wet-rug but I've had the opportunity to measure and listen
to several ML hybrid systems over the years and Icannot find one which I would
recommend to anyone for which there aren't much better performing systems at
1/10th the cost.

I recommend the Ascent to anyone interested in superbly natural sound.
I'm not sure where Tom is getting his measure of 'better performing',
but I'm not at all convinced that it relates entirely to the listening
experience (deep bass aside). And I defy *anyone* to find a superior
speaker (in any respect) for less than $400, which is Tom's claim.

As you imply in another thread, objectively inferior measurements could
still result in a *purely subjective* rating of 'better sound' in
a speaker, so I think it would be quite easy to find someone who
could rate those cheaper speakers superior *in a blind comparison*.
===============================================
Mr. Pinkerton,
Please, I value recommendations and opinions of products. That, in
fact, is what the original question asked for. Challenging Mr. Nousaine
to prove his recommendation/opinion ("where Tom is getting his measure
...") is, of course, another invitation to detour this thread which Mr.
Sullivan gladly follows up on. Are you two secretly twins? :-)
Mr. Sullivan,
Stop trying to change every thread into a discussion of "blind
comparison" or dbt. The original question asked for "advice" on
loudspeakers. Please give your recommendations, but constantly
challenging other peoples advice is tedious rather than constructive.
