I have the Spendor Classic 1/2r2 speakers. Been using them since I got my Dev200 four years ago. I`m not gonna try to describe the sound with my humble english, but iI can say this.
I think the combo sounds perfect, I still get suprised when listening, natural and detailed sound in the livingroom(24m2).
The big retro woodboxes and the futuristic looking Devialet also looks great together.
The only thing I have changed over the years are the turntable. Im very happy with the sound and can recomend you try for yourself.

I had the pleasure of listening to a Spendor SP100R2 at a local dealer's. Although not through a Devialet, but through a relatively cheap Rega power amp. Nevertheless, what I heard was fantastic! A wonderfully natural, balanced and resolved sound. Simply spectacular. The sound was wonderfully hovering in the room, almost detached from the speakers. As a comparison, I also listened to the Spendor A4, but compared to the SP100R2, they just sounded bass-boomy and veiled in the highs!
Now the SP100R2 is too big for my living room, but the Classic 1/2 suits much better in size. Does anyone have experience with a Spendor Classic 1/2? Thanks for any input.
