| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ awesome arafiq ! I can't wait to hear whether I'm full of sh*t or not! :-) | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ agbrace, I do think the Perspectives are somewhat richer sounding, especially from the lower midrange down. I use them with some classic Conrad Johnson tube amps, which helps flesh out the sound. | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ voodoochillin, My experience with the JA speakers and lower powered amps is limited. In the store they sounded stellar with both SimAudio and Mcintosh tubes amps. I can’t remember if it was the Mcintosh 75W or 150W tube amps. Though I think I ... | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ @arafiq Regarding the Harbeth vocal magic... You may find you actually prefer the Joseph speakers, even in that regard. It was actually hearing vocals on some Joseph speakers that got me interested! I’m always comparing the sound of real v... | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ whipsaw, I received your bat signal! @arafiq I had the Harbeth SuperHL5plus for a while. I sold them and eventually bought Joseph Audio Perspectives (original). I plan to upgrade them to graphene at some point. I've been asked before to ... | |
| Joseph Audio Pulsar2 vs dynaudio confidence 20 vs tad-me1 In the past. Like over a year and a half ago. I've arrived from the future to LOL at that comment! | |
| Thiel Owners @ydjames Thanks. The "new" version or Rob's version uses a black-coloured basket instead of a silver-coloured one. I'm trying to figure out which part would look black. Do you mean the ring on the outside of the driver that holds it on t... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers baaach, I'd say they get equal time, tipping toward the Josephs. However I've actually had the Thiels in the system for a long time now. The reason is that over the past 6 months or so I'd been doing tons of comparisons of amplifiers in my syst... | |
| Thiel Owners @ydjames Finally, with a help of a very good and close friend (who is the previous owner of the Thiel CS 2.7), we managed to replace the previous pair of coaxial drivers with the newer pair of coaxial drivers from Rob, Coherent Source. I'm... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers baaach, I love the Thiels. As I wrote quite clearly I'm not getting rid of them. But I've always enjoyed owning more than one speaker brand because I like the sound of different speakers. I'm not sure you noticed I actually ended up purchas... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers I just noticed: this thread at the moment has 62,884 views! Wow, that's a lot of folks reading these mumblings! Whoda thunk it? | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Thanks ghasley. Sounds promising. Oh, and I forgot to mention: what a listening room! It looks like you could place practically any speaker in there and it should sound good. | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers ghasley, I'm always interested in the listening distance too :-) Still wondering if the O/baby holds up at closer to 8' listening distances (unlike the other O speakers). | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Thanks for the update ghasley! I have to hear these o/babys some day! | |
| Devore / Bay Area Tone of music -> you come to audition you buy. If not, don't waste my time. If that's from a dealer that's a truly sh*tty attitude and I'd avoid. The point of auditioning is to DECIDE if you think it's worth buying. You don't... |
