Does anyone have any experience with PSB Speakers


Does anyone have any experience with PSB floor standing tower speakers?

I'm interested in your overall thoughts about that line of speakers.

Thanks

I own image 4t and 65t, stratus silver and gold, and synchrony one. Each is excellent in its price range, and each higher priced speaker is better than its lower cousin. There is a house sound, which is basically neutral, with more cost providing more range, detail and coherence. PSB, like many Canadian speakers uses the government anechoic lab to test their designs, DMSO it's not just guesswork. A quality product at a bargain price. It's not the best ever made, but I haven't heard better at any price point.
In my experience, they are worth trying. As you can see from the above, there are those that love them and those that don't.

The bottom line is that PSB is a good speaker company (among others) and their products are worth consideration. How they're going to sound in your system is kind of up in the air. What pre/amp are you running?

If your upstream equipment tends to run on the warmer, more laid back side, then the metal domes probably won't be a problem. I run a decent mid-fi system consisting of an old NAD pre amp and an Aragon amp with a set of Paradigm Studio 10s and don't have any problems at all with the metal domes.
I've got the PSB Imagine T series powered by a NAD 375 BEE in a 2 channel audio system. The main source is a Linn Unidisk 1.1. The system has a REL R-328 subwoofer. I have listened to these PSB speakers with and without the subwoofer. I use the system for TV and DVDs and CDs too. IMO these speakers are a great value. The NAD/PSB combo must be curing some of the complaints mentioned above because I have not experienced any fatigue even after listening for several hours to rock, jazz and folk. The bass is more than sufficient, although I have grown accustomed to the subwoofer being on so I have plenty of bass. I will note that, IMO, the PSB Imagines sound better with more power. I hooked up a lower powered Denon amplifier (90W) and it clearly and negatively affected the sound quality. When I switched back to the NAD(150W conservatively), the PSBs had greater clarity and sounded much better.

I have a set of stratus gold I's, very nice. But, you really need a strong ss amp, like a Parasound hca-3500 to drive them properly. They will produce some of the best bass ever, with a big amp. Dont listen to people about the dome tweetet. It takes a very long time burn in the tweeter and then it will mellow out.
