I own a set of Fritz carbon 7se MK2 in a smaller listening room with very good electronics (IMO) and a SVS SB 3000 sub. Listen to only Rock, they are so GOOD. I told Fritz during a recent conversation, after listening for 3 plus hours that I would never sell them. They look so simple and refined, but sound so good. The call was just about telling him How much I enjoyed them. Robert TN
I am about to embark on my next upgrade journey
Hey Audiogon Community-
The basics of what I have now:
12x15 room with cathedral ceilings.
2x Schiit Aegirs in mono
Gustard R26 Pro
2x REL T/5X (next for an upgrage)
MAC Mini M1 with Audirvana Studio
Various cable upgrades and power conditioning
Back wall is treated.
What I want to upgrade are the B&W 705 S2 speakers on 30” stands.
I have enjoyed the B&Ws but I feel I am missing some general musicality, presence and depth.
As the impedance curve heads down to 4ohms on the B&Ws, the Aegir’s seemed to run our of steam. Otherwise, the amps sound quite amassing for what they are.
I have limited options for brick-and-mortar retailers to do in person listening. The closest oner to me made me feel like I was buying a used car. They immediately started discussing a $20K before even qualifying what I currently have, or about ny tastes or listening room.
I need a stand mount that is a stable or as stable as possible @ 8ohms and 89db efficient.
I have narrowed my choice to the Sopra N°1and would appreciate some feedback. Open to other options as well.
Thank you!!
