Anyone want to share your speaker sound around NY?


In the market to buy speakers, looking in the $20-$30K (used) range. Interested in horns, Tektons, JBLs, Canton, Wilsons, other. Looking for attack, transients and micro & macro dynamics. If you are proud of your speakers, and can offer up a listen, please respond. Tristate area. Thank you!

If you can get to Somerset NJ, you could visit Charney Audio and hear their fery good speakers.  They are very successful with working with single drivers-very dynamic, as you would expect, but also rich and smooth sounding.  They are also very efficient, so they work with the best kinds of amplifiers, which tend to be low powered.  I don’t own Charneys myself, but I like them.  The speakers I tend to like the most are horn systems, bur mostly systems built around very old compression midrange drivers.  I don’t like most modern horn systems as much.  However, some Volti systems are decent.  For the record, I heard Tekton Double Impacts and Moab speakers and liked them.  I hope you can find someone to show you those.

If you can make a long road trip to the Washington DC area, you should check out custom horn systems built by Deja Vu Audio.  They build very good systems to your requirements.  Systems with only modern drivers start at $10k.  Systems using old drivers and horns go up from there, some WAY up, but $30k will get you a  system unlike any regular production speaker.

My advice is to go see John Rutan at Audio Connection in Verona, NJ.  He has Vandersteen, Fyne, Proac, ATC and Magnepan.  Great showroom and John is just a great guy. His team is also very good.  Just go listen to music and hang out.  Worth the trip.  

Also, go see Larry Borden at Distinctive Stereo in River Vale, NJ.  Great listening room with Genesis speakers by Gary Koh.  Sounds fantastic.  Also carries Canton and German Physiks.  Larry is another great guy in this industry.

i would also go to Resolution Audio in NYC.  They carry Devore, Rockport and other high end brands.

+1 to the below. I don’t have experience with any $30k speakers, but Audio Connection is my local Hifi shop, and John Rutan & crew have always taken care of me.  Just recently purchased and had audio connection install a new Hana MC cart for me and am loving it! 

John is a super nice guy and very knowledgeable, great hang!
