Best of old model speakers under $1800 vs my Alons I hsve alon v Mkii's. I drive them with a cary slp 88 pre-amp and a pair of cary v12s that are used to bi-amp the speakers. I have always been happy with the speakers and chose them over the B&W 801.(even though the B&W was what I had been... | |
Room size for Alon V MK2 My room size is 14 x 32 with a ceiling that goes from 8 to 12 feet. I have not had the issue you describe and have owned my alon v mk11 for 12-14 years. It could be that room size is in fact the problem | |
Bi-Amping questions I had a pair of Sim Audio amplifiers which I bridged mono hooked up to a pair of Alon V MKII speakers. liked it well enough but wanted to try tubes. I bought a used pair of Cary V12r amplifiers and have been running them horizontally bi-amped. Am ... | |

alon model 5 mk 2 I just hooked my alon v mk 11's to a pair of cary v12r's in stereo. verically bi-amped with the option to switch the bass to ultralinear. So far very happy with the results. Previous amps were simaudio ss monoblocks. Good but the carys present a b... | |
Cary spl88 tubed pre owners I have the cary coupled with simaudio amplifiers driving alon v mk11 speakers. I am very pleased with the music reproduction. Variations in the quality of the music seems to me to be more a fuction of the quality of the recording rather than the g... | |
Do Audiophiles blow speakers? Shortly after purchasing new alon 5 mk 11's I was listening to a very dynamic LP. I heard the gun shot - like a 30-06 and subsequently the tell tale buzz of a blown woofer. Manufacturer replaced on the house- one time only. My solution was to repl... | |
Review: Alon Model V mkII Speaker I have had these speakers for a few years now. I originally was set to purchase B&W 801's, having auditioned them several times. Another party was listening to the Alons when I arrived at the retailer- I left with the Alons and have been pleas... |
