LSA 10 statement speakers
I still have PTSD
Sorry to hear that the statement failed to make a statement.
I hope all associated PTSD heals over time 😁.
Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it?
Just as the title says, what was the last speaker you got hyped by, purchased and returned subsequently? If you returned it, what did you not like about it in your room? What equipment did you try matching it with?
Hearing about such experiences of unmet expectations could be an interesting topic.
Well, it’s a free country. If a cow wasn’t all that sacred in your experience, you should be able to say so freely and without any reprisal (i.e., it is the purpose of this thread), " I did not like that cow...A different beast worked better for me"...No problemo.... |
@newbee , I don’t fall for that innuendo, i.e., "It’s never the fault of the speaker and the guy who made it. It is always the fault of the guy who bought it". Such innuendo generally emanates more from guys who sell things in higher price brackets. And no, i won’t be sitting around for "years" to make it work. I have a couple of different legit rooms and a few different types of legit electronics. If it underperforms or doesn’t meet expectation, I send the speaker back to speaker’s daddy and move on to something else. It’s quite simple and life’s short. |
@nitrobob , I had the double impact in one of my rigs for a few months before i offloaded it/gave it to my nephew. Of course, the Youtube reviewers/advertisers were singing christmas carols about it. It’s a nice concept in theory....trying to manage the midrange with the tweeter array (small drivers --> improved impulse response, etc), which should technically give a high level of resolution, clarity, etc in the midrange. But, it didn’t.... It could be tricky trying to optimize a crossover network for that type of design.

@panzrwagn , +1, the ls50 could indeed be ideal for near field office/desktop audio (no worries about where separate drivers summed or not).

@agwca , nice post/great chunk of info. For the past 10 years, I have been set up in a 1600 sq.ft basement, which i finished to get 2 large listening rooms, storage space, etc (got banished from floors above by the sorceress upstairs). Small speakers have always sounded lost in my space and are not my thing. For the type of music I listen to at my spl levels, they all cry and demand to be sent back to their daddy. Most reviewers (advertisers) on YT review way too many small speakers (easy to get them in and out, I suppose!)...and I’d be shocked if those tiny flacid speaker wielding cowboys said anything other than, "it was the best thing eva!". Lol Cool that you’ve got a Keces amp.. I have been using some of their power conditioning solutions for a bit. It’s not a name you hear around here much. |
