| Focal Diablo EVO vs Prior Gen(s) Thank you for the reply, Audiotroy | |
| Amp for Focal Diablo Utopia Colour Evo I know this is a bit of an old thread, but I had Diablo EVO and felt it was wonderful with Luxman. I did not care for Focal with Audio Research Ref 75 or Simaudio 700i or Boulder 565. Also sounded good with tube pre into class A amp. | |
| Class A integrated Luxman L590AX vs Accuphase e560 I know this is old. Wondering what the difference is between the mark I and mark II 590ax cant find anything on this. | |
| Luxman L-590AX Anyone know the difference between the 590ax and the 590ax ii. (Mark ii)? I can’t seem to find anything on the mark i! Thanks! | |
| Wilson Audio Yvette vs Sasha 2 If I were in the market, based on my experience and the trajectory of W/A, I would blind buy the Yvettes. No need to audition for me. If room size was right, I would go for them. | |
| Wilson Audio Yvette vs Sasha 2 Alameins = amazing. Thanks autocorrect | |
| Wilson Audio Yvette vs Sasha 2 Mark I’ve had Sophia 2, 3, Sasha 1, Alexia 1, Sabrina 1. They were all Alamein’s speakers. I would order them: Alexia 1, Sabrina 1, Sasha 1, Sophia 3, Sophia 2 In my room, with my ARC gear, Sasha was better than Sophia 3, but marginally. I di... | |
| Simaudio Moon 700i vs Boulder 865 Integrateds Bingo. The Boulder was dry, a bit white, but very clear and detailed soundstage. Didn’t make the improvement in bass I was expecting either. | |
| Wilson Audio Sabrina for Large Room? Thanks for sharing your perspective, James633. keeping a little life in the Sabrina as a candidate. | |
| Wilson Audio Sabrina for Large Room? Thanks everyone. You are sounding like the voices in my head I’ve been trying to ignore. I think I really need to consider a larger speaker, and one without a rear port. I think Focal Sopra 3 might be a better fit for the space. I’m also ope... | |
| Wilson Audio Sabrina for Large Room? I should add, I no longer have Sabrinas to just try it - likely obvious. | |
| Focal Diablo EVO Utopia: Cosmetic Changes or More? Hahaha. Yes. That requires a change of home, but I’m on the look. I had Scala v1, Diablo EVO is better, in my experience. I hear Scala evo is a real stunner. It’s next. | |
| Focal Diablo EVO Utopia: Cosmetic Changes or More? So, after some relaying between a sales rep and the distribution rep, they have made changes to:“the internal dampening was upgraded, the tweeter received a permanent grille, and a new crossover was developed to adjust for the grille and new dampe... | |
| Better than Usher Dancer Mini-X DMD? I love Focal Utopia. I’ve had Sopra 3, Sopra 2, and most recently Sopra 1. I have Diablo EVO now. I recommend listening to Sopra. To me there is an unnatural excitement to the upper-mid/lower treble, that, although not fatiguing, is distractin... | |
| Upgrade Quandary: Ref 75SE vs Ref 150 (non SE) Hi dhite71. I did try the 75se, and it is significantly better than the 75. I’m on to Focal Sopra and I felt the ARC gear was a little white/dry for them. I’m on to PrimaLuna Evo400 separates. The preamp is a stunner. The amp is not as special a... |
