SLS loudspeakers ht400 5.1

[vinodude]

I am looking for some feedback on the SLS system stated above.

I have not been able to find many reviews on them.


Please advise....

It looks interesting for $3000 - we may need to contact them for a system. Have you heard a ribbon driver before?

I was turned on to these by a professional sound guy in LA. He swore by them due to the ribbon drivers. He said the ribbon drivers helped to transition the high's so well that the music was very warm and never caused ear fatigue at higher levels.

With some of the endorsements ie:sting,Q I thought there might be some truth behind it.

This is very true. However, there are tradeoffs. Ribbons can have a narrow dispersion, poor dynamics, and are less than tough.

I have a pair of Apogees with ribbon tweeters in my 2 channel listening room, but prefer horns for the home theater.
