| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano sounds like a strong endorsement for the Walsh driver capability....any idea, what are the actual Walsh driver cones made from? | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano The $4k was just a number that might be the speaker portion of a $10k total budget...which any non audiophile would think is crazy. Interstingly, a number of posters have suggested speakers ranging from $2-4k that with a good recording and the rig... | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano @wolf_garcia how do the preludes sound with respect to mid and low bass with such small transducers?? | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano @johnnyb53 Question: do the 1.7s need a sub to do piano or do they go low enough on their own?? | |
| Any Tekton (DI) installations in Tampa? @333jeffery. Are you able to hook them up? What have you moved on too?? | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano Also, the latest Absolute Sound says that Manepan is offering a 60 day in home trial on their 0.7 mode (in their 2017 top picks supplement) ...but I don't see this on the Magnepan website. I listened to the 0.7s recently through a Parasound integ... | |
| Open Baffle. Why are they mostly limited to DIY? So here is a "no risk," return it if you don't like it, $450 chance to try an open baffle, full range driver, no crossover loudspeaker that got a pretty good review.. (watch steve deckert's video midway down the pagehttp://www.decware.com/newsite/... | |
| REL Vs SVS for 2 channel music listening @aberyclark back to the beginning, most music doesn't have both heavy and tuneful bass at the same time. Yes, there is plenty of music with heavy bass, example- blue man group, but is often electronic generated bass. So the question becomes are ... | |
| Open Baffle. Why are they mostly limited to DIY? Based on Clayton shaw's comments from this link. Spatial audio intends to sell the bottom half of their X2 model as an open baffle sub http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=153006.60 | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano @philjolet you make a great point. Whether you hear a piano from 15' away or through an open window it is that airiness and clarity that it is a cue that it is a piano and not a loudspeaker...hence my original question: what loudspeakers at less... | |
| Open Baffle. Why are they mostly limited to DIY? Open baffles don't always need a lot of power. I heard the spatial audio turbo m3 in salt lake at their assembly facility through the 25 wpc Rossi integrated. They easily played at 90+ db 14 feet back. They sounded really good. Very smooth, detai... | |
| Open Baffle. Why are they mostly limited to DIY? I suspect that another issue for companies that make and sell loudspeakers is the reputation for open baffles like planars and stats needing 3-5' of space. This is a pretty big market limiting factor (fewer possible buyers).... so maybe not the ea... | |
| The latest and greatest Yes and now that the ls50 w is $1200 more than the non amplified version it may not be perceived as such as bargain. | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano @grannyring It definitely seems that the DIs are well thought of. I'm guessing that there are many people not too excited about 106 pounds each...so it would be interesting to hear how the Brilliance and Electrons stack up to the DI Monitors (s... | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano @Wart Thanks for the suggestion and I agree that most of the time the piano is mic'd in a way that both the sound and location aren't realistic@jayctoy...you make a good point...not very many people listen to 90% piano....so I'd probably add acou... |
