K5SS Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I have loved their offerings since day one. They probably offer the best subwoofers on the market for the money, especially the new ones with I.C.E. amps. Their speakers are also getting killer reviews.

I've heard beryllium is the bee knees. http://reaction-audio.myshopify.com/collections/speakers Beryllium is used in door/vent finger contacts when you want to isolate a room electronically either way. They can take constant bending and high temperature without loosing strength. They also use beryllium electronic contact fingers in high power klystron transmitters tunable resonant cavities to adjust power and bandwidth. They will copper and silver plate them for better contact. Beryllium is also kind of hazardous if ingested. JJK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prerich Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I liked them because they were coax speakers and time aligned. I owned a trio of Bag End M6's but I had to sell them because I needed some extra cash for closing on my home . I've always loved coaxial mounted speakers, but as I've stated at my other place, I'm all in with these Cornwalls!!!!! (The vertical makes for a great TV stand )!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJK Beryllium is very toxic - I've also owned the original Beryllium speaker the Yamaha NS-1000. I didn't know what I had back then, I new they had beautiful top end and mids but the lows couldn't keep up with the rest of the system. This was around 1992 and I received them on an equipment trade while in the military. I sold them in 1995 for.......drumroll please................$45 bucks !!!!!!!!!! I did this just to create room in my house - I didn't know how much they were worth!!!!! Can someone say STUPID with me?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've wised up since then ! I also owned Polk SDA SRS 2.3's at that time, along with some Infinity speakers, a pair of VMPS speakers and some JBLs.

Paducah Home Theater Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 http://reaction-audio.myshopify.com/collections/speakers/products/cx-10?variant=823614953 That's only 12.5" wide and 20" tall... most anybody could buy three and use one as a center channel. Turn one on its side if need be, would be 2.5" shorter than a KL-650. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatever55 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 It will be interesting to hear someones take on how these sound compared to some heritage like Belles or Khorns or even Jubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
