Coherent speakers from Canada


Anybody here own speakers from coherent? Can you tell me about your experience with them in your room?

Can someone buy the Coherents for sale on USAM today (7/17/24) and review them? They look really interesting but I shake in my boots when I think of this kind of tweeter in my ear. Most that have heard them seem to like them. 

I've had conversations with the owner and he seems to get it too. Need to hear them some day or at least hear from someone that can compare them to speakers I know. Thanks in advance! 

I’d be curious as to how they match up to comparable Klipsch and Volti speakers.  Anyone?

I still have my Coherent 10's from my earlier post 5 years ago, time flies!  I also have a pair of Volti Razz.  Both are excellent, fairly similar with some slight differences. 

Voltis dig deeper and tighter in the bass than the Coherents, and they can scale up the sound much easier when you crank it.  Volti are also more room friendly, those Coherent 15's on USAM are going to need some space. I tried the Coherent 12's and they were a bit big for my room, I stuck with my 10s.

That said, my Coherents have the most clear and engaging midrange of any speaker I've owned.  Being point source, they do sound more coherent (derp) and organic than the Voltis. 

Both speakers are tunable.  Volti gives you an extra set of resistors which I have not had the need to use.  The Coherent crossover is infinitely tunable.  When I received the 12's they were way too bright, and Frank showed me how to swap out the crossover resistor with a simple screwdriver to get the tweeter balance the way I want it, worked like a charm.  The only catch is you have buy your own resistors.
