| Goodbye Paradigm Monitor 7 v4's Consider the value of a buck 15 years ago and look at the inflation in hifi in that time and you'll probably go backwards in sq with that budget. | |
| Which Speaker What I did was pick a price for speakers then double it and shop used for 50% deals. If you can find a pair on your list used and within driving distance, buy them and try them then resell them. You ain’t going to make any money, but you’ll contro... | |
| Speakers for Rogue Sphinx Do you like bass? Paradigm persona 7f with RA would be awesome. whereabouts are you? | |
| B&W 802D vs Focal Kanta 3 I brought home the kanta 3 store demo's and got no bass below 80 hz in my room, a huge 10 db peak at 100 hz then bass dropped like a rock. They say bass below 2-300 hz is room dependant, but all the other 'full range' speakers i've had down here r... | |
| Anyone try stuffing their ports? I've been cooped up too long. I read 'tried stuffing your port" and expected an entirely different discussion. | |
| Reliability of Dutch & Dutch 8C speakers This question comes up with active speakers regardless of brand. D&D is probably the best bang for the buck in hifi right now. I don’t own them, have nothing invested and currently have more speakers than rooms to play them in, but there’s a t... | |
| Focal Kanta 2 vs Revel F228Be Sopra 2, congrats. I was wondering why they weren’t on the list. I haven’t heard the dynaudio C60i yet so I think at $10k msrp the persona 3f or latest VA beethovens if they’re still imported | |
| snell type d speakers best compatble amp? Why don’t you tell us | |
| Speaker upgrade Congrats on the MA pl500's. The MA of old were too bright for my ears but the latest offerings, while I haven't heard them look to use a much better tweeter. | |
| Paradigm Persona B vs 3F vs other competitors - any experience? The source that convinced me the personas were the real deal was the Pathos logos mk2. I’d heard them with the anthem str integrated and separates but the pathos just warmed up the mids the way I like em. | |
| Paradigm Persona B vs 3F vs other competitors - any experience? Looking forward to hearing your impression. Congrats. | |
| Paradigm Persona B vs 3F vs other competitors - any experience? It's been suggested I give the dynaudio special 40 a listen also. | |
| Dynaudio resolution Thanks for the reply's. The new contour line is beautiful but way out of my comfort zone pricewise. There are some attractive deals on this site and while I'm not worried about Dyn's reproducing bass I really don't know how high up the ladder to g... | |
| Paradigm Persona B vs 3F vs other competitors - any experience? Good question. I listened to the Kanta 1 against the b with the anthem str integrated driving them and it wasn’t even close, the persona was much better. The STR kit wasn’t my favorite pairing with the persona tho’ and with warmer electronics we g... | |
| Dynaudio resolution Many speakers designed to be flat are so boring to listen to. I always liked the bass Dynaudio could get from their designs but there's got to be fans out there that have gone up the chain that can describe the audible differences from series to s... |
