I can't believe that Transrotor (manufacturer of the"convenience" turntable) actually have 22 models of equally gordy products - the site is in German, not sure Google Translate helps... "Elegance means for us is that your eyes and ears come across at their expense."

They're OK, but I'd rather keep an eye out for a pair of AR5s.Originally Posted by istari_knight
Early ARs were truly remarkable speakers for such basic designs.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Have you actually heard a pair? The imaging is strange to say the least (bit like the Goodmans Dimension 8 and the Radford Monitor 180). The MST had similar characteristics. I loved the AR3 and AR5, the AR6 turned in a good show too.It's AT LST for me! Drivers all over the place!

I heard them in a very big room - they worked well there. Good, room-filling sound.
