The slim shape will certainly play a role in whether or not to buy this speaker as well as the possibility of choosing a color other than white or black for a change. Also the fact that you no longer have to place a subwoofer on the floor is an another absolute asset of the GoldenEar T66.
You also don’t need a behemoth of an amplifier to drive these speakers. Furthermore, the GoldenEar T66 does not impose any particular sound on the music, so the rest of the set determines the final reproduction.
Conclusion
Donald Givogue, Sandy Gross and Bob Johnston, the original founders of GoldenEar, can sleep on both ears. The GoldenEar T66 still possesses many of the features that characterized the previous models. But to stand still is to go backwards, so the new range is a lot more stylish and a lot more sophisticated. Both in terms of appearance and sound. The GoldenEar T66 may be a slim floorstander, but it sounds anything but. This is of course due to its active subwoofers but it doesn't stop there. The rest of the speaker is also very balanced. There is plenty of insight and nuance when playing music and the ability to adjust bass levels seals the deal. Mission accomplished!
