Best Holographic Speakers ~$7k per pair


Hello,

I am currently shopping for a whole new system. I demoed Klipsch Cornwall's and Fyne 502SP's. They were both great in their own regard however I was won over by the Fyne Audio 502SP's because of the holographic illusion they were able to generate. I demoed them with a Music Fidelity M6si amp and Bluenote Icon streamer.

They are currently at the top of my list but this is a big investment and I want to make sure I do my due diligence before pulling the trigger.

I am interested to know if there are any other speakers in this price range i should be checking out before making my decision? I listen to a wide variety of music including electronic, classic rock, indy rock,  hip-hop, orchestral music etc... 

In addition to the holographic nature of the 502SP's I also liked the clarity and punch they gave. I have read about the Ascend Audio ELX towers, Mofi 888's and Tannoy Arden's, but only seem to be able to set up a demo of the Mofi 888's which i plan on doing soon. I live in the LA area if that helps. 

Thanks for your help

My experience fwiw:

Fyne Audio was on my shortlist after having heard them at the Accuphase official demo room in Yokohama. I was looking at the flagship Fyne at the time. Then TAD came along and completely blew all my preconceptions over what a speaker could do in terms of imaging. I was coming from many years and models of Dynaudio at that point. 

So you’re on the right path :)

My TADs are at a different price point, but there are also more affordable models with the exact same point-source coherent transducer technology. I would definitely listen to this family before you decide. Who knows, you might have a similar eye opening as I did.

Also, as others have said, the room is very important.
