Tonian Labs vs Musical Affairs

Prcinka, What other PHY speakers have you heard, over which you preferred Ocellia ?

Glide3, I see from another thread that you've owned quite a few speakers. I've been told that PHY speakers offer quite a different listening experience compared with more conventional designs - I currently own JM Lab Mini Utopias. Can you either elaborate on or debunk what I've heard?

Thanks guys

Here's the burning question on my mind: The reviews of most PHY speakers that I've seen have been positive. I haven't heard anything negative on Tonian labs - quite the contrary. So why, when it seems like such a sizable number of audio enthusiasts are calling for efficient, high impedance speakers, is their so little relative enthusiasm for this design?

The Tonians are superb - and a bargain.

I own two pairs (D1 and Classic) and have had two other pairs in my system.

Tonian's re-worked ribbons are the best I've heard.

The 12" PHY driver is remarkable (less so the 8").

Musical affairs...if they sound so good through a vimeo video
then something special is going on
