Post Subject: Agree about expensive speakersPosted by Antonio J. on: 1/17/2005
I have listened to some expensive speakers from B&W, Wilson Audio, Dynaudio, and also owned the SF Amati, you know already. Musically these ones were more musically interesting to me than any of the others, but still weren't something that completely satisfied me. Now I own less expensive, smaller speakers, more suitable for my worse room, and I find them musically much more satisfying, although I trade some "sound performance features" which do very little to increase my interest for the music sounding, but still I feel that things should be different. In any case smaller two-way speakers sound rigther than big ones, which lose completely the sense of "union" and coherence of the musical flow.
So what musical benefits could I expect from a back loaded horn speaker using a Lowther, Fostex or AER driver? I ask about back loaded horns because they could fit my room, no front loaded horn would fit it, nor any planar speaker. I know you're no dealer and you dislike advicing, but I'm not asking for advice, just want to read you speaking about "musical benefits", term which by the way, you should also register like "audio morons" ;-)
Regards.
