“Everyone interested in audio ought to take a serious listen to the SP1/2R2s, just to explore the boundaries of the possible in stereo that this type of speaker illustrates, not to mention its neutrality within the limits noted. These speakers are a lot more than remembrances of things past. If you spend a lot of time around live music and have a vivid memory of the literal sound of music itself, you may well find the experience of listening to the SP1/2R2 a return to the real world of music.” – Rober E Greene
