The Quintets fill a huge room, mine is 16x 27 and vaulted. Using the Vox 1.6 widebander recommended to me by Ze’ev, and can’t pull myself away. Amp is the LTA Ultra Linear. As DS above, next is the active XO. I’ve also heard the Spatial at the LTA factory, in maybe less than ideal conditions and could happily live with them but they didn’t lure me in like the PAPs. The OB’s appear to take some of the room out of the equation, especially the bass. I have less need to manage the low end energy. FWIW, I also believe that the transformerless amp doesn’t induce vibration into the chassis so vibration management is also less of an issue. If the Covid thing diminishes enough, maybe you’ll have the opportunity at a show to listen in the near future. Best of luck and you are on the right path.
Spacial Audio Lab X3 and Pure Audio Project Quintet 15
Got the spacial bug. Looking at Spacial Audio Lab X3 and Pure Audio Project Quintet 15 for my downstairs pure stereo system. Amps are Primaluna Dialogue 7 Monoblocks. Large room, 20'x26' 9' ceiling. Both speakers are efficient, 95db for the PAP and 97db (powered subwoofer) for the SAL. Can't see these anywhere, both direct web purchase. Does anyone have any experience with them? Recommendations appreciated.
