Mantis,

Just Curious, But while demoing the LSi's you were referring to a Lorenna Mckinnet CD. Which album is this? I threw on "The Book of Secrets" the other night, and listened to the entire CD without getting up. The imaging was superb and the instrumentation of the songs was awesome. Not to mention the incredible tonality of her voice.

Thanks,
GuitarheadCA

    GuitarheadCa,
    Lorenna Mckinnitt is beautiful.I love her voice."The Book Of Secrets" is one of her Cd's I like to Demo with."The Mask &Mirror" is the Cd I ran on the LSI's,I also ran Songs from "The Book Of Secrets".
    If your into her you should get "The Mask & Mirrror" awesome cd.
    She can make or break a speaker, the LSI passed the Lorenna test with grace,female voice on those babies is about as good as It gets in that price class.The Dynaudio's come across about the same with female voice.If I had to choose one speaker for female.....Lorenna's voice,Id be completely sadisfied with both speakers.They are about the same there.

    Thanks for the info, I'll probably go get that album. I agree about the whole female voice thing. Although it's a slightly different genre, I also enjoy Sarah McLachlan's music as well. I think her voice has a beautiful tonality also.
