| The best speaker you ever heard? The revel salon2 was the best sounding system I heard til I bought them and brought them home. now I disagree with the OP and while speakers are important all the pieces of the puzzle have to fit in a hi rez system for it to be musical. | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? Congrats on your find. We both know the key to being happy with ones current system is by staying out of the shops, I would add shows but the sound at shows is usually pretty average.I scooped a pair of Usher BE-20 DMD's on new years day that are ... | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) Bose 901 vI 18 31/2" drivers per pair add a couple subs and supertweeters and call it a day. lol | |
| Amp for Usher BE-20 ? big bump: Hegel h360 drives the big ushers loudly and smoothly. My room is 17x27x7' but you can tel when a speaker has enough power or when it's not giving it up and these speakers sound like they're holding nothing back. I've tried some 'hi end' ... | |
| Speaker Suggestions How big is the room? I have a beautiful pair of Vienna Acoustics Strauss in Rosewood that sound as good as they look, but have 11" side mounted woofers and can put too much bass in a small to medium room. USAM. Used Focal 936 more modern, less tra... | |
| Have you ever wondered why speaker manufactures do not consign speakers to dealers? Good topic. Congrats on the Kanta’s! I’m interested in the 3’s but, can’t justify the margin so will probably be waiting awhile for a used pair to come up. The thought of somebody waiting days, weeks, months? for a fat fish to get caught on his ho... | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? this thread started in 2014! | |
| Is Usher still around Bump, I lucked onto a pair of Usher BE-20 DMD dancers this new year. I’ve spent the last 3-4 years assembling my system and these are the 6th pair of speakers I’ve bought! the good news is that I’m done. The review I did find online does an accura... | |
| Why so many used focals? The thread started when I started to research focal speakers from owners by checking forums and in comparison to other big players there wasn’t much activity . for example Dynaudio has 10,000 posts on a forum that focal has 1,000 then looking on t... | |
| Best used speakers under $10000 Your room will make a big difference in perceived bass. My room sounds lean so a rear ported speaker that I can move around for bass reinforcement offers the best balanced sound where if you have a bass heavy room a front, or bottom ported speaker... | |
| Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think? Next level in wayne. He said they had a power outage and his best guess would be 150 hrs. Curious or looking to purchase? Thanks for the compliments on my gear. | |
| Are dome midrange better than cone designs? Whats the sonic tradeoff for domes vs inverted domes? I had ADS speakers with dome mid and tweeter and they were bright! My last 2 speakers have inverted domes, cones without a dust cap I call them but the lack of glare would probably be due to be... | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) I just chanced on a pair of Usher BE-20 dmd dancers and like old time missions they have a very high xover, around 3.5 khz that covers most if not all of the vocal range so 1 driver with no xover in the critical mid range makes for a very good mid... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers How about the Usher BE- 718 used? Great speakers for the money. | |
| Best used integrated for under $5000 I bought the h360 and while at average listening levels I thought the hegels all had the sonic signature I could hear a little more refinement between the h160 to the h360 and then the h190, and if I didn't need the 250 wpc I might lean to the h19... |
