Verity's Fidelio vs.Talon's Raven: Who Wins? Obvious..... the listener. Both are incredible speakers. As Tireguy has mentioned, it is now down to personal choice and his conclusions are right on.
Verity's Fidelio vs.Talon's Raven: Who Wins?
I need input on both the Fidelio and Raven because I am considering buying one of them used at a reasonable price---even though both are grossly overpriced. I have heard the Fidelio and it sounded very open, detailed, neutral, but a bit dry. Also , the bass was a bit underdeveloped for such an expensive speaker. Talon's Raven is a mystery to me, because there are no "official" reviews and only a few some comments on the web to go by.And Talon has recently upgraded the speaker even though it has only been on the market approx.8 months. Both are very attractive speakers. Though, I would prefer something that is not going to be a pain in the ass to drive and sound good like the Audio Physic line. I got good, though "dated" hi-end pieces, Aragon 4004, CJ, Sonographe, some or all of them which may soon be replaced if I hit the lottery or use the oldest kid's college money( Nah, just kidding!!) So,I like to hear all opinions about these speakers. Thanks again, Jimbo
