Post Subject: Avaton in MunichPosted by manisandher on: 5/21/2017
In case there's any confusion, it was the Avatons in Munich (and not the Animas). I took a good listen to them on Friday, and wasn't overly impressed. I spent a long time there yesterday though and thought they sounded better than anything else I'd heard at the show (including the WEs, which were my favourites up until then), but only with certain recordings. I agree that with some recordings they could sound a bit sharp. But at least they had some life, unlike most of the other systems I heard there. The WE was very nice, but lacked some 'kick' in my opinion. But hey, great for an 85 year-old pair of speakers!
Back home now, I'm listening to my Animas (driven by my new Thoress monos with Elrog 300B tubes), and have to say that I wouldn't change them for any other speakers I heard in Munich, including the Avatons.
