I am in the process of auditioning tower speakers and after a couple of weeks I have determined that, with the exception of B&W 703's, I liked the sound of LSi15's. I can't comment on the LSi9's, as I was looking for floor standing speakers.

That being said, I am working out a plan with Capn Pickard to listen to his M60's.

It has been an eye (ear?) opening experience to listen to the same music tracks time and time again and have them sound so different - depending on the speaker and the receiver/pre-pro used. I never knew that speakers could sound that diverse.

I have determined one certainty - I do not like the sound of Def Tech powered towers with the music I prefer to listen to.

I am looking forward to hearing the M60's, if they sound anything close to the "B&W" sound that I seem to like, then I will be sold.

Cheers,
Rob
