Re: Spendor S6e vs S8e

I've auditioned the Spendor S8e's several times at great length and fell in love with them. At the time I could not get a pair on sale so ended up buying a pair of Usher CP-6371 speakers. THose I am completely enjoying for the last year. Most dealers don't carry the S6e because as a few magazine reviews have mentioned. The prime models for the money are the S5e and S8e. THey specifically mentioned that the S8e was head and shoulders above the S6e for not much more money. The sweet spot. For a small room the S5e is recommended. THe S8e is not no giant speaker. It plays perfectly fine in any medium sized and larger room. It does not go in low in bass as my Ushers or other speakers in that price range. But what bass it does have is very tunefull and tight. Even more so than the other models. The reviewers even went as far as to say that the S8e is the most balanced of the series. The sweet spot. This speaker is extremely nice. In a large room like mine...25' x 30' they would definatly need subwoofers.
