Other speaker brands I’ve owned are Klipsch, ADS, MB Quart, Magnepan, Dynaudio, Boston Acoustics, Tannoy, Realistic, Technics, Sony, JBL, Dynaco, Ramsa, EPI, and Cerwin Vega. I can’t believe how much people pay for them. After owning the 100s, the 60s and the 40s I now know what they’re really worth. I did it but it was so much work that in the end it wasn’t worth the labor I put in. The only decent thing about the HPM-100 is the woofer and maybe the cabinets although the wood veneer is super thin so be careful if you plan on sanding them down to refinish them. Sometimes less is more especially in audio. Bart Locanthi should have just designed it as a 3-way. Many owners try re-capping them but if you look at the crossover points they’re just wrong for sound quality. They are rock music speakers or party speakers. The HPM-100 are definitely not audiophile quality speakers. My Klipsch KG3.5 with a single 8” woofer had much better quality bass. I also expected the bass to sound deeper because they supposedly extend down to 25Hz. That means 3 crossover points where frequencies can overlap. Not surprised due to the 4-way not vertically aligned drivers. At first listen the speakers sound good but after a while they sound fatiguing. When testing for sound quality I used my Sony CDP-CE335 via toslink to my Yamaha DSP-A3090 in order to utilize the Yamaha’s superior DAC. I had a pair hitting 126dB at my 12’ listening distance. Although I would expect a higher sensitivity rating for a 12” 4-way speaker, the HPM-100 can surely play at ear splitting levels.
I hooked up both models to my 450W per channel pro amp just to test spl output and they both handled all the power. So don’t pay the premium for a 200W version just so that the terminal can read “200W” and to get the silver port ring. I’m convinced that’s why because everything is identical in both models. I read somewhere that the reason Pioneer came out with the 200W version was because they felt the low 100W rating was hurting sales. I completely dismantled both to compare the drivers, crossovers, and cabinets. I’ve had the 100W and 200W version simultaneously.
