Lines: 20 The rumor I heard was that Kloss started Advent with its line of popular speakers was to raise enough money to go into projection tv. Anyone else heard this? Opinion: I can't stand Advent speakers. They have a boomy bass and generally sound like garbage. Opinion: The (n-1) generation of AR speakers is great. After MUCH auditioning, I bought a pair of AR-11s which sound fantastic, especially considering size and price. I also liked the Klipsch Cornwall, but didn't like the idea of needing a forklift and truck to move them. The only speaker I've heard which sounds (to me) truly and significantly better than the 11s are the Snell type 'A'. Maybe the AR 9s, but I haven't listened to them much. The Snells are much more 'open' than the ARs, and the bass goes lower.. Of course these are much larger and more expensive. The current generation of ARs have regressed considerably.
