Revel Salon 2 vs Vandersteen 5a Carbon How did you come to the 2 finalists? I'm sure everybody would have another recommendation for you. | |
Focal Kanta NO.3 Speakers Spending More Doesn't Matter ! If you like subs I guess it would open the door to a lot more speakers than otherwise, personally Love my 2 channel sans subs. | |
Active Speaker Choice Analog active crossovers work just like digital ones, high and low pass filters before the amplifiers. Each set of drivers get its own amplifier so amps see a resistive load. This approach virtually eliminates IM distortion which is what your ea... | |
Focal Kanta NO.3 Speakers Spending More Doesn't Matter ! I brought the kanta 3 home for awhile. I like their looks and the upper mid and treble was pretty special, but I couldn't get much bass from them so they went back. I need speakers to reach 50 hz b4 rolling off because I don't use subs and the kan... | |
Next step up from Acoustic Zen Crescendo II's You mentioned the personas, I’ve been using the 7f with a hegel h360 for 6 months, but what sold me on the speakers was how it performed with a couple less powerful integrateds, the pathos logos mk2 and the little lumin 60 watt model. Speakers are... | |
Which speaker among Dali, Dynaudio and Acoustic Energy should I choose? Your amp should do well with any of the 3 speakers you pick. Unfortunately we can’t tell you what you’re going to like better. | |
Paradigm Persona 5F I had the R 107/2 at the same time as the R 105/3 and surprisingly the 107/2 was bright in comparison, more deep bass and the 105/3 was colored in the mids...A speaker can be bright if it isn't harsh or colored. If I put the personas too close to ... | |
Active Speaker Choice High-amp, I’m not advocating for meridian only justifying my own purchase because I could never recommend them at the prices they charge for new, used levels the playing field. Honestly if you understand (I don’t) how speaker placement works in yo... | |
Intimate, warm and holographic alternative I’ve been buying and selling used speakers so I can listen to the most recommended in my room with my gear. The problem is taking a chance on smaller brands with small marketing budgets can be harder to resell if they don’t workout. Have fun with ... | |
Looking for my Final Pair!! I got my threads crossed, enjoy the Klipsch. | |
Active Speaker Choice There’s many powered speakers out there but active dsp is another animal. Whats best forum has a very informative thread on the D&D dsp speakers and the owner/reviewer describes in detail the care put into setup and while it makes sense l thin... | |
Looking for my Final Pair!! Vienna Acoustics’the music, | |
Active Speaker Choice The dsp5200se was probably against the wall and they’re the only pair of the 3 current floor standers that are rear ported. I won’t buy a new pair of speakers without hearing them in my room first. Genelec is pretty impressive and they have their ... | |
Better/best fullrange nearfield speakers? Most manufacturers offer speaker lines broken into quality and then room size so there may be 3 or 4 speakers in a line that only differ in bass output. Near field can be accommodated with toe in or distance between speakers relative to the listen... | |
Paradigm Persona 5F Dali Epicon 8 speakers look sweet, I've always been interested in Dali. I had the Kef R105/3 with kube and bi amped they could push 114 db, freaking amazing, but I never got used to the missing mid bass hump we hear in most box speakers, also the ... |
