Thanks for sharing the dream. I heard the Patrician over 40 years ago and just remember how clear it sounded. But, that was then ...

How they would stack-up next to an equivalently priced speaker today would be an interesting thing to hear.

I recall that the EV factory tour-guide (1967) said that the retail price was actually inflated over what they could have sold it for at a reasonable profit because price was associated in the audiophile's mind to quality (still is). I think they retailed for around $700. each back then.

Looking at the various opinions of their sound quality, on-line, it appears that the series got mixed reviews. Interesting how one's memories compare to others.
