Russell K Red 50 - PRICE DROP!!

Russell K Red 50 Monitors, absolutely perfect, optional grilles included. Received as a gift. I have retired, downsizing, just have too many speakers. Only opened to take photos and hook up to give a listen and assure no issues.  Having read about them, I am impressed. They live up to the press.

Positive reviews abound, a few quotes:

“The RED 50 might well be the finest sounding miniature speaker around right now. Careful choice of components and a delightfully well judged balance are more than ample recompense for its bass limitations, while omitting the internal absorption does indeed seem to assist the overall timing. I feel a Best Buy rating is entirely appropriate”.

“This speaker has the performance gene. Its reactive energy is concentrated in the music you hear – there’s no fat, no waste, no temporal blur, no tonal bloom. Somewhere Down The Crazy River? I swear it raised the temperature in the listening room”.

 “In its favor are ease of drive and a friendly impedance, I expect that most amplifiers or receivers will drive them without much effort. Placement should not be a problem either, keep them away from back walls on a decent stand with slight toe-in to get the best results. That way they sound neutral enough and behave well enough to make them good for listening to all kinds of music at home. They soon will grab your attention, pull you into the performance of the musicians, and make you listen to the message they are trying to communicate”.

“Reviews build an elaborate vocabulary, which is in part useful for padding out the pages. We write of soundstaging, inky-black inter-transient silences, micro-dynamic shading, and lots of other terms that attempt to create a linguistic interpretation of sound. This can be useful, but can also get in the way when something is just ‘right’. And I think, for many people, the Russell K Red 50 is just ‘right’. It’s enjoyable, musically insightful, easy to partner, and easy to love. Very highly recommended”.
