I must also have been at the same "shootout". Curiously, the listeners were nearly equally divided between the three monitor systems when polled. The silverlines did image very well and sounded very smooth. The Reference 3As clearly sounded the most dynamic, with a strong bass and a bright treble (although I tended to tire a little of the sound after a while). I thought that the Trentes were very impressive and should sound even better on the stands that were designed for them (although that adds about $500 to the cost). These stands have a Helmholtz resonating system that cleans up the bass and extends it by another octave or so.
Anyone heard the new Reynaud Trente's
I have been thinking about buying a new pair of Speakers for my upstairs system. I have heard and like very much the Spendor 1/2, but I have never heard the new Reynaud Trent's. Can anyone give any insight into the differences, between these two speakers? Thanks very much for any assistance.
