| Sopra 2 Bass A local dealer puts his speakers on the long wall with them nearly 1/2 way to the listening seat well away from the sidewalls and gets prodigious bass from any speaker, including focal’s. It goes against the idea that getting the rear facing port ... | |
| Are the Paradigm Founder Series really, really good speakers? With semi active speakers you have some flexibility with placement and components, I get it. Paradigm offers a lot for the money no doubt, but dynaudio makes some semi actives also and if you want to be sure you’re doing the right thing listen to ... | |
| klipshorn speakers My buddy upgraded from his lascala’s to the Khorns and he nearly returned them, he was so used to the huge mid bass boost of the lascala’s that the k horns took some getting used to. They don’t sound like they’re putting out any bass but they do p... | |
| What speaker has the best tweeter? Maggies all day. | |
| KEF Blade -- how good are they? Yes, I agree. The po had them connected to tubes and the balance was warmer tho’ the hegel is a pretty good partner and with carpeted floors, acoustic tiles over Sheetrock and plenty of distance from the sidewalls these do well however there are s... | |
| A full range speaker? I have an old mirage 400 watt with dual 12’’ subs and I drug it into my basement to hear what I was missing and, yeah i got those good vibrations and every piece of ductwork in the house rattling in sympathy. I agree with the above post, get healt... | |
| What speaker has the best tweeter? Synergy is part of what we hear when we’re listening, obviously and memory is unreliable they say so with that out of the way and no particular order. Salon2 tweeter, usher dmd gets another vote, se upgrade meridian comes from Norway, the persona ... | |
| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. Did i mention the persona b yet? Probably, for good reason tho’ $7k for bookshelves is ug, but they can be found for nearly half that including stands and with your front end they should excell, if there’s any way you could home demo a pair? | |
| Kef Blade or Kef Blade Two for bigger room Hi yyz , I think I should know your first name by now:). Check it out. I started my upgrade 6 years ago when my krell kav 300il, ie the glue that held it all together baked for the 3rd and final time, since then and in this order the kef r107/2, r... | |
| KEF Blade -- how good are they? I listened to some raidho’s at axpona, the D1.1 and D5.1, I loved the 1.1 and couldn’t get out of the d5.1 room fast enough. I really believe speakers need to be the right size for the room to make a fair assessment. Wilson speakers generally soun... | |
| Kef Blade or Kef Blade Two for bigger room BUMP, Congratulations, These speakers really go under the radar and for my modest size 17'x27'x7' basement listening room the h360 drives them quite nicely. If you keep this thread going by posting any suggestions you find along the way..tia Steve | |
| Kef Blades (1), being auditioned...please share your experience. Bump, I had the kef r105/3 that had 2 6'' mid bass drivers and they still made male vocals sound like choir boys. Designers believe wide dispersion speakers are the way to go and maybe so, but with that coax driver pushing so much radiated sound o... | |
| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. I think the persona B could be on the list. | |
| Average Price Spent for Speakers A months wages, but I have to do side jobs or overtime to keep my wife calm, | |
| All NEW Paradigm FOUNDER SERIES...Could they be Paradigm's best speakers yet ? The personas are the highest resolution speakers i've gotten to hear yet and different components will make pretty big differences in playback. I only got to hear the founder 120 with a mac driving it. the personas need several feet around them wi... |
