I briefly owned a pair of the V63s and I returned them after a couple of months. I found the midrange to be overwhelmed by the high and low ends to the point where some recordings sounded very hollow. I also had a problem with the design of the speaker itself. I crumpled two tweeters - both were crushed because the plastic domes extend beyond the front of the enclosure and are completely unprotected by the grills.
Mission Volare V63
Has anyone experienced the sound of these speakers. I have an older set of Misson Freedoms and they have a very tight sound well put together. I was impressed with the European speaker. I could not use my older speakers for home theater but analog works super. Because of the sound it led me to purchase a set of the Mission Volare 63s without listening (not a swift move). I am using a B&K 507 Series II Amp and use Audioquest cabling throughout. I really began noticing a not so smooth sound but not sure if its the AMP or Speaker? My older amp was one of the first generation of HK but I wanted to up and go to more of the home theater and digital sound. Did I make a bad choice on both the amp and speaker. I have been eye-balling the Sonus Fabers Grand Piano series speakers and have been for a few years. They are a bit pricey and not what you call purchase for you medium consumer. I believe I have made a good choice in DVD (Denon 3910) and Sub (Velodyn DD10) just questioning Speaker vs. Amp....
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
