Speaker change
Hi all. I am thinking of changing out my Dynaudio Special Heritage speakers and I want to stay with stand mount speakers. My system consists of Hegel H390, Gustard X30 DAC, Eversolo A6 (streaming only) and two REL 7tx subs. It all sounds very good but like many of you, after a couple of years or so, I want to hear the music I like and know, maybe sounding better. I am thinking of the Platimon VC-1 speakers which are comparably priced with the Dynaudio HS and have gotten pretty good reviews. Imaging and soundstage are important to me. Does anyone have them? And if so, how do you like them?

Joseph Audio uniquely and successfully uses his variation of Richard Modafferi's Infinite Slope Crossover Patent for several models including the stand mtd Pulsars https://www.josephaudio.net/pulspecs "Crossover: 2 way Parallel Asymmetrical Infinite Slope Crossover at 2 kHz. " https://patents.justia.com/inventor/richard-modafferi
I loved my JSE Infinite Slope Model 2's, (tall 4 way on wheels) a friend has them now, they also use his low frequency Phase Shift Patent. these are called 'Rosewood', but I believe they are walnut veneer stained red, I changed my 4 wheels to 3 with rear anti-tipping blocks. Dual wheel furniture casters do not wobble like single wheel axels do. I have those wheels on my current speakers. this pair, black, you would need to use UPS pack and ship, just have the seller drop them off unwrapped. notice different inputs, they are the later updated 2A's I believe. I would verify the bottom woofer is the original dual coil woofer (not previously switched by a prior owner), have a woodworker apply a new select veneer of choice, and good luck finding anything sounding better. https://www.audiogon.com/systems/11418

Have you considered buying a SPL Meter, a Test Tone CD, and an Equalizer, to modify what your existing speakers are doing in your space from your listening position? https://dbxpro.com/en-US/products/2231 2231 model has longer sliders for more precision, and detents when centered, as well as bypass. meter needs a bottom hole to mount on a tripod at ear level at listening position ’Amazing Bytes’ my favorite test cd with 29 1/3 octave test tones I could help you find an inexpensive copy
