| Perlisten S4b and D12s in house verdantaudio,Thanks, a quick scan of the manual just shows a low-pass not a high-pass but correct me if I am wrong. Interesting brand for sure. I am interested in opinions as more people hear them. The measurements are about a good as a passive sp... | |
| Is this Klipsch upgrade worth it? coachpoconnor,when I demoed the Cornwall IV they were right next to the wall. I pulled them out to roughly 5’ and felt no gain in soundstage and a slight loss of low bass. I ended up demoing them at less than 30” off the front wall and they sounde... | |
| Is this Klipsch upgrade worth it? No I would not make that upgrade. I have heard both and the current La Scala (at two different dealers). The Cornwall iv and La Scala were in the same room with the same front end at both dealers. The Cornwall IV has the potential to have harder h... | |
| Class A amps Just YouTube but you can get the idea. https://youtu.be/LYn8Fj7ItnY | |
| Perlisten S4b and D12s in house Yes I see now you used the D12s not the D212s that is $7000. I buy in pairs so $7000 is hard to swallow but $4000 seems reasonable lol. It would be nice if they had a highpass though. My JL subs have broke a multiple times. They will be my last JL... | |
| Perlisten S4b and D12s in house The drivers look like 7” versions of the SATORI TeXtreme from SB accustics. A good driver brand used by Revel. https://sbacoustics.com/product/7%C2%BD-satori-mw19tx-4-textreme/They are interesting speakers for sure. Too bad the subs are so pricy. ... | |
| Speaker Decision Paralysis (for large volume loft space) Sitting in the near field will work is almost any room. You could make “false” back and side walls with free standing room treatments behind your seat and or beside the speakers. This would cut down on the energy sent around the room. https://www... | |
| New Klipsch Jubilee, with active crossover. This might be the driver in it. Link with measurement of the driver below. https://celestion.com/product/axi2050/ | |
| New Klipsch Jubilee, with active crossover. Klipsch website says 5” diaphragm. 7” seemed really large for a compression driver and also seemed large to be used as the mid/tweeter. JBL is using a duel 3” in their M2. It would be interesting to hear how they compare. 5” makes more sense but s... | |
| New Klipsch Jubilee, with active crossover. And see measurement… not that I am all about measurements but when you can’t hear them I like to see them. I believe in active crossovers. I wish more brands would have active crossovers. The passive amplification with passive crossover could be i... | |
| Have you moved away from full range to standmount speakers + subs? Big speakers WITH subs is the way to go. Listen to Douglas Schroeder he is one of the few good reviews left. Look at what JBL does with their active M2 horn speaker. They put crazy amounts of power on it on a very efficient speaker. | |
| Bye Bye Puppy! New Wilsons have less peaky bass than the older models. I think you will discover more texture in the bass over the older models as you get used to them. | |
| used mc452 or new mc312 There are a bunch of certified McIntosh repair shops around. Has to be one of the best supported brands. No worries there. | |
| Revel salon 2 break-in period? peaceunderearth,I would agree with your points. I think it is more psychoacoustic but also feel perception is reality. A couple of subs to underpin the revels and tune to the room/tastes makes them about perfect. | |
| Focal, B&W or Martin Logan Travelinjack,I have owned Focal speakers out of the Chorus line for an old home theater. Nice for the money. The higher end Focals keep the same sound but are on another level for clarity and soundstage while maybe a little leaner. Revels (that I ... |
