Maybe the new Klipsch RP-8000F II?
Adding a vote for the Klipsch RP-8000F.

Would also be interesting to see upgraded crossover and equalization-only effects

James Larson measured the new RP-8000F II and also the earlier version! :)

" I would say that the RP-8000F II is largely an improvement. The original did have a flatter on-axis response across its entire frequency band, but other than that, this sequel speaker is superior on every front: better build, better crossover, better waveguide."

I wish my old Pioneer VSX could've been tested, would've been interested in the results, probably don't make them like that anymore,

Pretty good review, of all three,
Have you tried Rtings EQ Harmon Curve?
Nope, I hardly eq anything, not even my wife ;)

UE hyperboom or better yet a Revo Supersystem.

I wouldn't mind seeing some of the Chinese LS3/5a speakers measured not in comparison to genuine original Ls3/5a's but in their own right as the crossovers on those things look way complicated.

If I was at least in the same hemisphere as Amir I'd send him a couple of my own speakers,oddities as such that I have picked up along the way.

I would love to have Amir test my Boombox 2, would cost a lot to ship though

Would like to see the SCM25A Mk2s, but I doubt we'll see that.

Any of the Bryston models. A Model T would be great, but that would be a serious undertaking!

Martin Logan Xt b100 bookshelf speaker.
6.5" 2 way
Nomex Kevlar woof
Seems a folded ribbon tweet.
Now low stock since Andrew Robinson liked them.

$800 each at crutch field


That's ML's house version of the AMT tweeter.. I've heard from a knowledgeable source their previous efforts with AMT's have linearity issues... I too would like to see how this fares...
