I auditioned the 8's last month. I wasn't as impressed as others. The treble was too tipped-up for my tatstes. It may have been the Simaudio amp used. The midrange and bass were both excellent. A pair of Reference 3A De Capo i's and Cain & Cain Abby's both amp'd with tubes were clearly superior in tone and frequency balance. YMMV
DeVore Fidelity speakers?
Hi everyone,
I read a review on 6moons.com raving about the DeVore Fidelity Gibbon 8 speakers. Has anybody had any experience with either the floorstanding Gibbon 8 or the stand mounted Gibbon 3? Have checked on this site and also on Audio Asylum but have not found much info. Any comments would be appreciated as I am in the market for monitor speakers (I welcome other recommendations as well).
Current system:
Plinius 8200 mk 1
Classe .5 cdp
NHT 2.5i
Acoustic Zen Hologram
Luminous Audio Synchestra interconnect
Room dimensions: 13x15x8
Music: acoustic jazz (both vocal and instrumental)
Many thanks,
Kevin
