Rar1: Sensible Sound reviewed the DCM models a few months backI found a few excerpts at http://www.dcmspeakers.com/news/stories/soundmag.htm I was interested in personal experiences of any A'goner. I am sure Sensible Sound will say something to the effect that they are good speakers "better than many costing 2 or 3 times" all of which I am sure is true. |
Bondmanp and Chadnliz: Thanks for your feedback. I would still like to get some comparative perspective. What would the new DCM's comparae with in other familiar lines, be they Proac, Dynaudio, Tyler, Silverline? Zu Druid anyone? :) Will they be as good as my Spendor BC1? Leave it in dust? :) Etc. I realize you may not be able to make the comparison(s). However, if anyone can, I shall be grateful for any observations. Basically, and this is my general observation about A'gon discussions, we need more comparisons (when possible) and hopefully fewer of "Sean/Bobby/Ray/Ty/Jim is a great guy" type remarks. I don't know what to make of that, but if you say that his [i]speaker[/i] betters Proac model XYZ for classical music and jazz, that makes concrete sense to me. |
Nealhood: My advice is to first set your budget, then maybe think about selecting a few... That is good advice. Myself, I am not actively looking for a speaker, just curious about the progress, especially about a few names that have a place in my memory. I like comparisons too but, I've often found that only I can select the speaker that best suits my preferences. It is very difficult trying to select based on another's preferences and room. Again, very true. However, the way industry has moved, it is harder to listen to interesting speakers than it used to be. Therefore, other people's opinions, which always helped us make our short-lists, are even more important in that role (to me at least). Eventually of course it is one's own ears and budget. |
