Krell LAT-1000 Speakers [Silver]

A conservatively rated pair of Krell LAT-1000 speakers in brushed aluminum. Excellent working and aesthetic condition. The speakers have never been moved, blemish-free, and are housed in a pet-free, children-free, smoking-fee, environment.

The Krell LAT-1000 is designed for audiophiles seeking an extraordinary listening experience. As a floorstanding speaker, it combines advanced materials, precise engineering, and sophisticated design to deliver outstanding audio performance. Add a LAT-C (also for sale) into the fold for a stunning home theater 

Each speaker is made of incredibly solid extruded aluminum, weighing 250 pounds. However, it slides easily enough on a carpet to allow one person to experiment with different room placements and setups.

Given the proper attention, the LAT-1000 is one of the few speakers that does come close to reproducing the illusion of live music. They are transparent, have excellent smalland large-scale dynamics, deep bass, and smooth, extended frequency response over most of the spectrum. But their unique timbre is a standout characteristic like Sonus Faber’s and Wilson’s. The overall response is warm and tuned to give more of the kind of deep-bass power you hear in a concert hall or club than to win a race for flat response. These speakers emulate the sort of timbre you hear live, not the frequency response that measures well in a lab. Prepare to rediscover you favorite music and even movies by adding the LAT-C into the fold, which is also for sale.  

*Note: I have a pair of Stealth Audio Dream V16 speaker cables that were custom made and ordered directly from Stealth. Please inquire if interested.

Performance:

• Dynamic Range: The LAT-1000 handles a wide dynamic range effortlessly, making it suitable for a variety of music genres and movie soundtracks.
• Amplification: With a 4-ohm impedance and 90 dB sensitivity, the LAT-1000 is relatively efficient, but pairing it with a high-quality, powerful amplifier is recommended to fully realize its potential.
