| High end speakers at low volume @grislybutter Not trying to insult, I just thought it odd that since Volti only has 3 products, you only mentioned the entry and top of line model when the middle one had a higher 100db than the Raz 97db that's all. | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. @kokakolia In an ideal world morally you may be correct. However, businesses are a for profit enterprise. Even increasing customer goodwill is targeted at long term increased profit. Business should be more "morale"? Good luck with that wast... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Perspectives -great choice congrats. I demoed the A5 vs Rockport Atria at last years AXPONA. Ended up purchasing the demo Vimberg Mino D which I got at a great price after raising my budget significantly. I like treble high frequencies so the di... | |
| Wharfedale Elysian 4 Incredible build quality and sound, but made in China. It shouldn’t matter where it’s produced as long as proper/adequate quality control is managed during the manufacturing process. China has significantly cheaper labor and the technical expertise that makes manufacturing there attractive to cut cost... | |
| High end speakers at low volume @grislybutter Strange but you forgot Volti Rival at 100db - their mid level speaker of which I own and chose for it’s neutrality for a flea watt speaker. @ricco275 You’ve listed many great sounding speakers. But choosing which sound is better... | |
| DFW folks - anyone have these speakers I could listen to? I’m also heard the Tannoy at the LA THE Show. Sonically I wasn’t impressed- seemed like the sound was from old tech speakers. Fyne was established by past Tannoy employees so their offerings are more advanced than Tannoy who doesn’t seem to invest... | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? On the WBF forum, Master-Built cables were discussed. These cables were designed as a side job by the government scientists who work on superconductors. Debate went on back on forth on what the cable manufacturers claimed. Iirc In this debate i... | |

| $50k - $80k Budget…Opinions please. Magico, Rockport, Vinberg (some great reviews) @bobfun - at AXPONA 2022 last year, I demoed the Magico A5 and the Rockport Atria II to help finalize my final speaker purchase. The Magico’s had better treble highs but the Rockport sounded more... | |
| cheapest speaker made in the last 10 year that can beat any speaker made before 1970? How do you compare a panel speaker to a box speaker? They have different advantages and disadvantages. a stand mount vs a floorstander? Apples to oranges or rule out stand mounts? if you’re speaker shopping, a budget, stating your audio chai... | |
| cost no object integrated amps The Audionet Humboldt is my endgame choice whose sonics compete with the very best. Bummer a used one is for sale in my voltage but bad timing for me. | |
| 300b lovers Don, looking forward to seeing you at the show with your working prototype. | |
| Upgrade from an Audio Alchemy DDP 1 + PS 5 power supply? I stretched to $12.5k DAC to get my end game bargain DAC Linn Organik but in an older streamer. | |
| cheapest speaker made in the last 10 year that can beat any speaker made before 1970? Can't answer because "cheapest" is not defined, speakers choices are subjective and are of different designs (box, horn, panel, open baffle...) so would be comparing apples to oranges.
