| What’s your opinion about Dali speakers? They definitely have their own signature sound to my ears. I have extremely limited experience, I owned a pair of Ikon MK 2 for about 5 months or so. Pleasing, a bit thin sounding to me in the upper bass, lower mids. Sound was clean but lackluster... | |
| Trying to decide between Quad S2 and Ascend Sierra 2 EX Decooney, had the fritz, also had discussion with Hilde once aboult it, an excellent speaker, something in the high end bothered me just enough for me to rotate it out.

| Speaker candidates/suggestions The Fritz Carbon 7 SE MK2 speakers are very fine in many ways. I owned them for a short while. I found the more I listened, the more there was something bothering me on the high end. Nothing egregious, I don't know if it was a roll off or my room ... | |

| Fedex and Ups Damage thread FedEx insurance is a joke. Packed a pair of Amphions no different than 20 other speakers I've sold on eBay or that other mart. Speakers delivered to buyer in SC with cabinet damage and woofer screen pushed in according to buyer. Filed claim, sent ... | |

| Suggest your most desired MSRP $1,500-$3,000 Stand Mount for a Shootout. A lot of good choices. I definitely want to see this shootout! | |
| Who uses ADS Speakers L570/2 and l470/2, both excellent 470 had a slightly better midrange imo, but I preferred the 570s overall went a touch lower and more balanced bigger sound. About 200/pair used for each ,perhaps more now | |
| Please recommend speakers Had the mini lore, not bad but I felt the tweeters were lackluster, high end disappointed me I'd save up for regular lore or some version of it with better tweeters. JMHO. | |
