But I actually have seen just as many reviews that put the Lintons over the Model 5's.
Erin's Audio Corner preferred the Lintons to the Model 5's in subjective listening tests. He also uses the Klippel Nearfield Scanner to measure loudspeakers, which showed the Lintons to be a more neutral measuring speaker, though the Model 5 was not bad.
Andrew Robinson on YouTube chose the Lintons as his speaker of the year in 2021 over the Model 5's, though he did also really like the KLH.
Steve Guttenberg said he was sent the KLH Model 5 and then sent them back without making a video review because they didn't do anything for him. Conversely, he liked the Lintons enough to make a review video.
I'm enjoying the KLH Model 5 a lot, but I'm sure the Lintons are also really nice and probably better value for the money.

But yeah, law of diminishing returns applies here, as with a lot of things. A $2k speaker will most likely not sound 4x better than a $500 speaker. But to those hobbyists, enthusiasts, audiophiles, musicians, etc., it matters to get that little bit extra.
Alternatively you can buy them individually Open Box or Scratch and Dent at Crutchfield. If you do that and purchase the stands you can still get them for around $1450-$1500.

It is open box/scratch and dent, but the bonus over the Music Direct deal is cheaper return shipping costs should you decide these are not to your liking during the first 60 days.
