Another vote for the Impulse, great speakers.
“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

Ok, I’ve now read a bit about the Impulse H2s and they’ve piqued my interest.
What is it about them that makes them so good?

They are a very natural and neutral speaker, if that makes sense, they also go gown to 20hz, I’ve measured them.Originally Posted by Filterlab
One issue is a slight cross over hump at around, 600hz. Easily fixed with a £1 resistor on each crossover. Some get new tweeters and completely redesigned crossovers, I would resist, you end up with a different sounding speaker that is not better imo. If it wasn’t for my wife I would have kept mine.

Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

I’m guessing it would make sense to have them checked over and sorted by Paul Coupe at RFC, to ensure that all is well? From what I’ve already read he seems to be on the ball when it comes to these.

Klipsch heresy IV. But only because I've been watching all the Youtube reviews.

Rob , Your comment about " No older than 5 years " The H2's don't fit in with this.
Unless as you say they go over to Paul RFC
If you are not keen on the colour of the pair on ebay I could let my pair go , Apparently they are the last pair made before they went out of business , Piano black gloss rear pannels ,Dark zebrano Black / brown side pannels along with the black cloth
My Pair would be £1200 , No less sorry , They also come with the grills in VGC , This would leave you with a very healthy budget for Paul at RFC
