Review: Harmonic Precision Caravelle Speaker

Category: Speakers

This thread is to show pictures of the set-up I didn't have available for the review. Please see my other review for details about the Caravelle. One note to those audiophiles with long preamp to amplifier interconnect leads. May I recommend you start with a $40 dollar investment into 20ft. Horizon brand microphone cables you can purchase at any music store. I was amazed at how good they are sonically. Worth the $40 bucks to try them. As the sales person told me, "They are made in the USA". I left it at that, but appreciated his enthusiasm. I hope this is helpful

Yes, I still think the Caravelle is one of the best monitors for the money and listen to them often at a friend's house. I am in Vegas as I write and listened to many monitors at T.H.E. and CES and I didn't hear anything in the $6k price range that could compete. Totem showed a new 2 way monitor that I enjoyed but I don't know the price. Look for the Caravelle on this site and grab them under $2k.

I still have mine and have done some changes...all simple. Even now more coherent and quiet. Wall to wall soundstage that now has more meat on its bones. The dynamic tension methods on the woofer and crossover...well no one else does that even at a 100k. If I ever change speakers they will be apart as soon as they come home to add this simple dynamic feature. The so called big boy speaker designers don't get it! Oh well. Tom
