Franco Serbin Accordos after one month.....


After living with these Accordos for a month and listening to my music collection all over again l have drawn some conclusions..there not the loudest, there not the most dynamic,there not home theater..there not beryllium highs and carbon mids. but l have to say there the most "emotional " speakers I've owned...the kiln dried walnut cabinets, silk dome tweeters and paper cut midranges are pure old school  majic..the human voice sounds more natural than anything I've ever owned...your favorite music will draw you to tears...l only play them with the best recorded songs..there so delicate, detailed and transparent...double edged sword with poor recordings...there almost too revealing for casual listening...l feel like l have to make a quality decision on the music l play when listening to them.....very special speakers!...super cool 😎

Back to the regularly scheduled program

 

Indeed the Serblin speakers seem to be overlooked here in the US. I think possibly because of their aesthetic? Not sure why else?

IMHO, Franco's best works were the GH's, the Strads and the Ktema's. Each needs a room appropriate for the speaker size, like all speakers.

I'm a 60 year old  hard working machinist, who owns no home computer...(wife has one)...l still can't figure out how to post pics on Audiogon easily...she could help me ....as far as aesthetics go l can see your point.The speakers are very ornait, maybe too much...the Accordo essence (not mine) looks like a museum piece.. everything is so refined...compare it to a Tecton and your head will explode..   l can live with my Accordos, but my furniture is barley worthy....the speakers look like there overdressed for a a party in my room...
