I had to chime in. I think Sonus Faber is a fine speaker company and beautiful finish. But every time I hear a dynamic speaker I always hear the cabinet. Not to mention drivers moving. I am also in the business and have sold the Olympica 3 speakers and many esl Logans . Including several pairs of expressions . I always love the huge open sound stage of a stat. The expression is a killer speaker for even three times the price. I own Logans ,Sound labs and Focal speakers. Be glad to chat with you anytime about my opinion.
electrostatic vs dynamic sound
hello !
i have recently moved my speakers( sonus faber olympica 3) to an open
floor living room and they started to sound terrible.
I have installed absorption panels on side walls and corners but they
didn't help much.
Lots of echo .They literally sound like i was in hallway. I previously
had them set up in smaller room with lower ceiling and loved how their
sound.
I know that Electrostatic speakers may sound better in large , open floor area but i'm worrying about sound "flavor"
Them most important thing i loved about SF olympica 3 was their extremely smooth sound . Very musical , not to bright, more on the warm side.
i think about to trade them for Martin Logan Expression ESL 13A. they are in same price range.
is it a good idea ? anyone compared sf olymica 3 vs esl 13a ?
thanks !
