Uuhhh,-)
The most think, a wide frequence-band, linear, is the reason for clean, good performance. But it is not. Not important.
Ex.: Knock at the casings and listen. That is the basic sound of your system.
Than think: ONE tone separated in 16 (?) DIFFERENT sounding drivers. 16 directions, 16 times, 2 x 8 different materials including separate resonances, reflections. 2 x 8 different crossovers, unnecessary diameters of cables ... I do not speak about materials, magnets of drivers, of masses, rigidities ... and sooo much more, that influences a clean performance, that produces tones, who are not: DISTORTIONS!
A big toy for big boys. Or little ones,-?

Use the mids, stands, try a lot with build in, damping, cables, connectors may be.

and yes those expensive big boy toys are just that toys..
it amazes me that so many people are ok with mediocre
"Mediocre" does need a feature to be complete,-)
My suggest: first try (mediocre), than cry (not mediocre,-).
Later the big stuff, not a little midplayer,-)
Trust me. Us - so "many" people.-)

My latest build is a horrible amplifier. I don't know why I spent my time building the amplifier... 🙁
I'm now eyeing on Samuel Groner VAS as developed by OS... Too many plans... strangely the worst got executed first...
For most of the good plans (that's including the H/K 430), I cannot just build and trust the schematic before analyzing the circuit in LTspice myself. I have 3 laptops on my table, I need to move them out if I want to put my design desktop on the table...
The "worst" is the VFA ? why ... only 43V/us ?
I see the H/K430 mentioned here. HK680 (slew OPS) HK990 , all those are
<50V/us VFA - "worst" ? ...
I use my old 680 to judge the slews.
To me best is one that lasts 20 years , stays cool , is not overly complicated
and brings joy to any decent loudspeaker.
OS
having a hard time
understanding what you mean...I can see English is not your first language and im sure better then i could speak yours...
maybe you can explain it differently?

what did i said above 🙄
So you ask for free things in return for a review and will not say anything about your 40 year old speakers on an open forum? you even tell people to google when google returns nothing useful.
I will remind you of that next time you ask for units for review...

are you kidding me...all you have to do is open your eyes and read ...or is that too much to ask🙄 and I have never asked you for anything have I?!
I have been talking about my speakers on various forums for years...no one cares im glad because there rare and when they come up for sale i buy 😀
no please go back and cheer for your leader

No but you have asked for free samples claiming you are a credible reviewer.
So easy for you to post some links for interested people to find out more.I have been talking about my speakers on various forums for years...no one cares im glad because there rare and when they come up for sale i buy 😀

The word is 'now'. Just last week you said
but you refuse to quantify your speakers. Odd...You have to quantify what you hear
dude slow your roll
I do not have any links you can google just like i can but in my defense i posted a picture and a manual....what do you want blood LOL

The "worst" is the VFA ? why ... only 43V/us ?
It was an old mediocre design, but yes a VFA and a lot less than 45V/us.
I see the H/K430 mentioned here. HK680 (slew OPS) HK990 , all those are <50V/us VFA - "worst" ? ...
I have several H/K but forgot the models, sound, specs or even the schematics. The only one which name I remember is a Citation 24. Have you heard this amp, what do you think of it?

To quote you again
My background is all about the live event and musical sounds ...I know what real non amplified music sounds like..I attend several times a year including live college band music...I have helped with a friend do recordings of these live musical events....I would say that I have Musical IQ
Yet you cannot describe how your speakers sound. Odd for someone with 'musical IQ' to just point people at a manual isn't it?
Self-made-speakers? Comparable mentioned?
All the H/K I would not use to listen music. That is rumbling stuff.

still looking at designs
Here is something that looks excellent make sure you read all the notes about the amplifier ...this looks to be a winner!!
not "laboratory grade" low distortion but very stable .IMO this is paramount!!!!
this also looks like class AB BJT amp 😀
let me know what you think

no.... I did not make these speakers there FMI fulton musical industries
you can read a little here Fulton Musical Industries - Home

That is my "spookyamp" without the VAS cascode.
That Carver 705 uses all sorts of marketing B$ , like "power steering" -
for just a bog standard leach amp with a triple EF output.
It most likely sounds good , this is the best topology for bass definition ....
most AB subwoofer amps use this design.
OS
That is a very complex x-complementary-pp-stages. The reason, why not, why never sound clean, in bass too. The most misunderstand the context speakers - amp: horrible speakers do need horrible amps. No doubt, your speakers and the carver will match.
I would try the carver.
