You want a good match for your Jolida? How about the REAL Sapphire from ACI? Wonderful speaker, bet it would be a good match for your Jolly.
Sapphire Audio speakers anyone?
Hi,
I went to a Tweeter store to audition the Monotor Audio Silver series and the dealer also showed me a brand I had not heard before, Sapphire Audio. (www.sapphireaudio.com). This is a new company, the ST3, 5-way model is in the range of $1300. To me, they had a great soundstage and detail, but the mid/high-mid was a little too forward and at high volume, it sounde harsh. Has anyone auditiones these speakers? DOES THIS COMPANY HAVE A FUTURE? I am trying to find a good match for my Jolida 502. Any advise on these or any other good matches in the $1300 range would be welcome. Thanks!

I've never heard the ACI's, but I've heard great things about them. Another speaker that you might consider that's in a similar price range is the Onix Ref 1. I'm driving mine with a 30 Watt Cayin integrated tube amp, and while it won't make the neighbors leave home it certainly has all the headroom I need. -Gary |
"DOES THIS COMPANY HAVE A FUTURE? " Yes. It is Tweeter's house brand made in China by the Rockets folks. Tweeter owns a percentage of the company. I'd agree go with the original Sapphires from ACI. |
