Kurre reference monitors

2005 Sound and Image award - Best in class

Describing the original Kurres in the Sydney Morning Herald in 1997, Greg Borrowman (Editor of Australian HiFi) stated " an inspired design........resulting in a sound quality that is second to none". And in his full review in Australian HiFi he said " I finished reviewing Dr Rod Crawford's Kurre loudspeaker nearly six month's ago they sound so delicious, I really haven't been able to part with them, so I haven't yet sent them back."

Subsequently in 2005 Greg Borrowman reviewed the Kurre 4s in Australian Hifi magazine saying
"... (the Kurre 4s) set a new benchmark for small monitor loudspeakers .... they sound magic! I actually thought long and hard about using this particular word, but after listening and re-listening to the Kurre 4s, I decided that it was entirely appropriate ..... a full, rich and incredibly dynamic sound that was insanely detailed .... through the Kurres I discovered nuances that had previously eluded me .... I was transfixed by the speed of the Kurres and their lovely atmospherics...... When you go to audition Legend's new Kurre 4s - which I sincerely hope and recommend you do - you'll find you're not so much `listening' to them as 'experiencing' them. Get ready for the experience of a lifetime." For full review please click here.

And in the Audiophile Loudspeaker of the Year category of the 2005 Sound & Image awards, Legend's Kurre 4s were “Highly Commended”. Other winners in this category were Revel’s Ultima Salons ($45,000) and B&W’s 800Ds ($35,000). With a SRP ($2990) of less than a tenth, the Kurre 4s “punched well above their weight” as world-class speakers.

The Kurre 6s continue this tradition of excellence. We have essentially retained the same cabinet with its extensive internal bracing and damping to reduce cabinet vibration; its complex internal shape to reduce internal standing waves; and the narrow front baffle with its driver location for best external dispersion of sound waves to create superb acoustic images in breadth and depth. However, we have introduced new very low distortion drivers, both bass/midrange and treble. We believe together combine even better than previously, using our very high quality crossovers, resulting in an even more open, faster and naturally warm sound. In addition we have also made some external cosmetic changes to the cabinets to make them yet more attractive.
The Kurres thus sound and look even better than when they won their 2005 Sound & Image award!
