These speakers will make you happy for a long time, I bet. I remember vividly the first time I played them in my living room. The Spendors replaced Italian Opera speakers that were fantastic. But when the first notes emerged from the Spendors, my wife and daughter stopped dead in their tracks. The artists were in our living room.
The S8es are easy to drive, are not fussy about placement, and sound natural and real. Not zippy or boomy, but full, easy and detailed with great imaging. They are made of beautiful cherry wood, and I have cared for them very well. The first time I ever took the grills off was for these photos to show the drivers: they sound great with the grills on.
I upgraded to a more expensive pair of Spendor floorstanders and so am offering these for sale.
Sally Reynolds from The Absolute Sound ended her review of these like this:
"So. At the risk of sounding naïve and overblown, I'm going to give you my true thoughts on the Spendor S8e: Buy it. For $3000 you are, I swear it, getting as close as a whisker to $30,000 in sound. Glorious, house-filling sound."
