In a recent post I wrote that my old CM1s were dull sounding compared to my more modern speaker purchases.
After hours of warming them up during the weekend and this evening, after two to three years of neglect, I can offer an unreserved apology to my CM1s that I was far too quick to make my judgement call the other day.
I feel that I have been swayed by modern speakers ... with their promises of sweet highs, great mids and tight bass. They were exciting at first but then it turned all demanding on me ... ''I don't like that music, I don't like that amp, I'm too close to the wall, I'm too far from the wall''.
I know now that I've been neglecting my CM1s. We're currently bonding again. I don't mind the fact that their bass response is making everything that isn't nailed down in my room rattle like hell. It's actually reminding me of good old times. I don't even mind the dent in the tweeter dome where my mate's kid went for some ''press for action'' interaction years ago.
Sillines over ... the truth right now is I'm wondering why I felt so inclined to replace them.*fool*
