Goldmund Dialogue Speakers

Ad010685,
Thanks for the guidance. Apparently the owner's manual does not contain much useful info, so you have helped me to put this curiosity to rest.
Which country do you live in? I am in the US.
What speakers are worthy of your Goldmund electronics? I use a Rowland Concentra II with my Dialogues.

TOM, I live in Italy ! I just changed my 7 years old Monitor audio 12 with a new pair or Burmester 995. Before buying this I tried many other speakers, small Avalons included. To my ears this Burmester were the most natural sounding and free from listening fatigue. If you like Goldmund also give a look at Burmester type of gears. Unfortunately they are possibly overpriced in the States while here are much cheaper stuff.
Another tip, the day you intend to change poweramp is Job audio. They supply Goldmund with their patented superfast power amp. Massively cheap! (look at the site price list) They are killer amps !I am not releted to them , in fact hate them for they supermacho approach but it seems they are able to deliver quality. In my Goldmund power amp one of the first Job circuit is included, after this quality edge Goldmund acquired Job
Take care

The dialogue never came with a manual. Great speaker but surpassed by a great margin in the Goldmund Meta speakers which use the same drivers but with a far superior crossover and sloped panel. I've owned Dialogues and Super Dialogues and the Meta's are the most musical. The Rowland sounds musical on the Dialogues but is not appropriate. Although the speaker is sensitive at 96 db, the focal drivers need current to really sound right. A small Krell ksa50S or Accuphase a50V with a cat pre is the absolute best combination for these. Stay away from goldmund electronics as these speakers were designed before any Goldmund electronics were ever made.

I have had a pair for 8 years. I replaced the tweeter with the focal titanium inverted dome and it is superior to the old kevlar. I also replaced the midrange drivers with original new ones I sourced in France. I use a 19 w modified Eico HF 60 (EL 34's and Accrosound output transformers) with a Great Northern modified SP 11 (one of the best phono sections in the world now) and an Oracle Mk III with a rubey 2 . I am happy as a clam. You can find used ones cheap here if you look. The driver modification is inexpensive and you can do it yourself.
