When I bought Sonus Faber sonettos, I was using a Sonos amp and immediately noticed horrible sibilance and overall brightness. When I ditched the Sonos amp and got a NAD m10 I had silky smooth, detailed highs and never again heard any sibilance. In fact the speakers got even more detailed. I think alot of sibilance is also caused by amps that have alot of distortion in the upper hand.
I don't have sibilance problems, are my speakers dull?
Another poster asked for help dealing with sibilant performances.
It got me to thinking, the one thing I have not had a problem with in like forever is sibilance. Maybe this is because I don’t seek to make my system "revealing" which to me often just means bright.
I’m now kind of curious, exactly what kind of gear and recordings bring this problem out?
Best,
E
