It is a given that for $7200 per pair the T66 will end up in your listening space in Santa Barbara Red. That is, of course, unless a spouse has anything to say about it. Even then for $6,900 the joke is on your spouse because now you have $300 in your pocket for some matching AudioQuest speaker cables. Beyond the sexy looks of the T66, for thousands less, the T66 loudspeaker provides a glimpse of what loudspeakers a full price-tier up are capable of. This level of performance for the dollar makes the T66 a smart value. This value is thanks (in no small part) to GoldenEar’s deeply thoughtful design of both the parts that make up the T66, and the T66 loudspeaker as a whole system. If those are not good enough reasons to add the T66 to your listening system, the near-flawless integration between the powered subwoofers and advanced midbass/AMT tweeter combo allow for a level of system integration from stereo amplifier selection, to room optimization that is not possible with a fully passive tower. At this point in its lifecycle, the T66 is mature and well vetted. My only regret is not getting my mitts on them sooner. It will be some time before the T66 becomes irrelevant because they provide so much abundant, musical value while keeping to a price that may not be an impulse buy, but is still attainable with some time and effort for any savvy audiophile.
