| Why so underwhelmed by Revel F208 audition??? While HK should be able to make their own drivers The F208 have been admittedly outsourced. When I inquired about availability for my salon 1's the reply was worded in a way that made me believe they also were outsourced and you can find that expe... | |
| KEF Conjugate Load C 80 Crossover question 20 wpc...Kef xovers tend to have somewhere in the vicinity of a million power leaching parts in them , add to that the general company conservative sound and I would be surprised if you liked the combo. | |
| Who makes a "true" Transmission Line speaker?... You guys realize this thread started in 2004 right? | |
| Focal 1028Be or JBL L100 classics (your choice) Bass is more a result of your room. I had the kanta 3 in my room and was +10 at 100 hz, flat at 80hz and -10 at 70 hz, -20 at 60 hz and off the screen by 50 hz.. Consider port configuration and how your current speakers reproduce bass to get some ... | |
| My Demo results: I feel like I'm at a frustrating block in my speaker journey The op hasn't been back since the first day of this thread, friggen lockdown's got me typing to shadows. | |
| Speakers for Pathos Classic One MKIII dealer is using pathos integrated with paradigm persona with excellent results. most natural presentation you could ask for. | |
| Dynaudio C4 vs Contour 60 I was considering the C4 as they're coming down in price and the only knock I heat on them is a small listening window and the ability to overpower a room with bass. Sometimes a certain speaker no matter how great it is just isn't the right tool f... | |
| Best bookshelf loudspeakers under 10,000 for the pair the new yamaha ns5000 is $15k, but I think comes with stands and is probably a world beater. | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains I wouldn't plug a power conditioner into a power strip. | |
| Subwoofers - Front Firing or Down Firing - Which Sounds Best? I know the experts say it ain't so but my old mirage with 2 opposite side firing woofers does a really good job without needing any room correction software. That said I needed a sub to double as an end table in the family room and bought an entry... | |
| Best bookshelf loudspeakers under 10,000 for the pair You would have to try these speakers with your existing components, but the persona b when I heard them were amazing. I think the sale's over tho'. | |
| Your Forever Pieces? What and Why? I scooped up a pair of DSP8000’s sl that I upgraded to se and I’m sold on dsp now. A lot of speakers have passed through this room and any bass below 70 hz was a problem and made most speakers sound clinical. My room doesn’t seem to affect the out... | |
| Active speakers for a large room Did you get to listen to a pair of meridian DSP8000’s?I imagine the bass presentation would be about opposite of what the pmc delivers but having only read reviews I don’t know. | |
| British Speakers vs All the Rest I agree with martykl. I can say the late 80s mid 90s the KEFs and b&w sound was overall pretty dull with a notable midrange and not much pop. It’s a global market now and more brands sound more alike with partnering equipment making a bigger d... | |
