Re Greg Timbers. He also designed the JBL 250Ti's; of which I own a pair with the big xover.. He is not only an excellent designer. I've had the pleasure of talking to him quite a few years ago. A great guy all round; straightforward and very generous with his knowledge. He wouldn't remember me; but I'll never forget him.
JBL Everest DD67000 vs. Avantgarde Duo Mezzo
Hi:
I'd like opinions of members who have compared or listened to JBL Everest DD67000 and Avantgarde Duo Mezzo (not the new XD version).
I auditioned Avantgarde Uno Nano in 2011 and really liked it. I don't have any exposure to Avantgarde Duo Mezzo yet. Last week I compared JBL Everest DD67000 against Revel Salon 2 and I liked JBLs much more.
Thus, I am going to choose between JBL Everest DD67000 and Avantgarde Duo Mezzo.
Please help me by expressing frankly!

stringreen I think you must have read the following http://www.tonepublications.com/analogaholic/hanging-at-vpi/ It seems that Avantgarde Duo Mezzo will finally put me on SET amplifiers train while DD67000 is best served with power! |
Hi haroon, whart is correct you can't drive the Everest with a SET the woofers need current and some power to come alive, otherwise its a fantastic speaker, one go the best out there. The Duos are semi active, for me that's a problem, the woofer crossover point is too high for it blend successfully with any kind of tube electronics the least of which are SETs. david |
