| Seeking a new loudspeaker, horn, single driver, concentric or open baffle Hey OP. FYI, I just ordered a pair of Lucera and should have them by the end of the week. I’m not sure if you purchased anything yet. If not, I’m in Suffolk County and you are welcome to have a listen. My accompanying equipment is a 300b amp, tube... | |
| Attention Horn Owners Having heard them, I wonder just how close they are sound wise to the Lucera or Rivals. Greg will say come on down and have a listen! lol. Great guy. I liked the modified Klipsch a lot. | |
| Tannoy or Volti I think my retirement amp when I’m fed up with tubes will be the xa25. | |
| Tannoy or Volti Well if you find that speaker that is just between AN and Volti let everyone know! Many are looking for just that combination of mellow when it needs to be and lively. | |
| Tannoy or Volti I know that is one of its strengths. I just don’t listen to certain music anymore due to its sound. I still need my classic rock or heavy metal going sometimes. Trade offs I suppose. | |
| Tannoy or Volti With a high end with zero edge. I listen for hours at a time. | |
| Tannoy or Volti What I learned today Charles, if you play jazz and easier stuff like Sade, Audio Notes are wonderful. There’s a reason they have a big following. Their mid range is really something special. | |
| Tannoy or Volti Well keep us posted on what you audition and give us a small review of each please. Curious what your impressions will be. | |
| Tannoy or Volti Alright! I did a hard look at Devores as well. I was attracted to the bigger sound after having had that mellow Audio Notes sound for the past 2 years, which will be missed in some regards. Let me know if you’re interested in AN! Lol | |
| Tannoy or Volti So I listened to the “Volti” khorn today. Gentleman was kind enough to let me listen in his home. Is a vintage speaker with all the hardware replaced by Volti gear. I believe that’s how Greg started getting into the business(please don’t quote me)... | |
| Attention Horn Owners Perhaps I can get the landlord to help me move these into my apartment! | |
| Attention Horn Owners I remember my old AR 10’s had an increase and decrease switch for each high, medium and low drivers. Was a cool feature. I remember having to adjust them when I moved and had hard wood floors vs carpeting. | |
| Attention Horn Owners Was just thinking of that yesterday as I took my morning walk. Such a shame audiophile equipment frowns upon tone controls. My right ear doesn’t hear as well and I would love to just move a balance knob a hair. Or turn down the treble a bit on a b... | |
| Attention Horn Owners Thank you mdalton. I sort of assumed the Devore, based on a similar design would have similar bass as the Audio Notes. Would you say you can feel the bass with Devores? As far as horns go, I may get a listen and not like them. If I do, NYC is a q... | |
| Attention Horn Owners Not sure Charles. They may be Khorns, which I’m assuming are Klipsch. Greg said that they have Volti something or others in them. Since I’ve never heard horn speakers before, I thought it might be a good place to start. I can listen to horns and p... |
