A bit of history:
Kloss was co-founded Acoustic Research, Inc. (AR) with Edgar Villchur and later he founded Advent Corporation.
The most successful Large Advent model was made in the early 70's
All the high-end magazines accorded Stacked Advents some kind of mythical quality that couldn’t be explained by “the numbers” or even by Advent’s design personnel.
Here are a few reviews from known editions:
ELECTRONICS WORLD
JuIian D. Hirsch
“After several weeks of listening [to the Advents]
we still hadn’t found anything to complain about. We couldn’t even find any sonic characteristics to hang adjectives on, In order to try to describe their sound.
They were,in fact, the least colored loudspeaker we have ever heard,and this includes the highest-priced system currently available.
“Probably for just that reason, the Advent proved
eminently easy to live with, and sounded equally comfortable and natural at low or room filling listening levels.
Dispersion was excellent and so, as a consequence was the
stereo imaging. Driver blending, too, was excellent, and the speakers did an outstanding job of reproducing the
front-to-back perspective in stereo and mono program material…
THE STEREOPHILE
“By all the accepted standards of evaluation... the
"Advents" are as accurate reproducers of sound as any top
line systems we have heard."
