Reference 3A Grand Veena vs Emerald Physics CS2.3
Hi Cloud,I can only say that Grand Veenas are incredible, a huge value for what they ask for and also one of the best I ve heard so far. Since I did not listen to Emerald, I cant comment on that but it has to be very very good to exceed GV.A must ... 
Reference 3A Grand Veena
Stilskin,Just curious why they are leaving and what is coming instead? And why of course?Thanks, 
With $20,000 in your hand, what speaker would you
Grand Veena is a must listen. It is a speaker that wont be embrassed by any comparison. As a former owner of Audio Note AN/E and Coincident Total Eclipse, Kharma 3.2, Revel Salon etc. I must say that it is the best I have owned so far. Wont be sur... 
Reference 3A Grand Veena
Pefstratiou,There must be something terribly wrong with the setup, to these ears, after 15 years education in this 'field' of audiophilia,I sincerely believe that Grand Veenas has nothing missing compared to Diva or 3.2 but more in terms of transp... 
Best Amps for Reference 3A Grand Veena speakers
Hi Gerrym5,It is everything you have heard of and more. They are incredibly transparent, musical, coherent and a joy to own. Have speakers inc. sophia, coincident, audio note, von schweikert, kharma etc but for me it is clearly the grand veena. It...

Audio Note Spkrs
Mdeblanc,I am in Turkey so it would not help. But I know Amhearst Audio (Bob Neill) and Audiofederation do carry the line in the states so they may suggest you something. I had great help from ahearst audio web site when I was considering AN produ... 
Audio Note Spkrs
Mdeblanc,It is not a kit, I bought it from a dealer. Another thing you must be aware is that the speakers really need to burn to sound their best. So any comment before 500 hours is premature. What is funny the a/b test with the other speakers wer... 
Kharma 3.2 Owners, your thoughts...
I second Dolphin and Verybigamp about the fuzz around Kharma. I lived with a well broken 3.2 for a week but much prefered my existing Von Schweikert vr4 gen 3 hse that I bought for 4500 USD at that time. It never grabbed me emotionally or musicall... 
Audio Note Spkrs
I could not agree more to Willrobbins. I am also an AN-E HE owner and they are everything a music lover would ask for. Very musical and do cope with everything from rock to choral music. I owned at least 10 speakers before and never this contend. ...
