In the Thread: Good commercial speakers
Post Subject: Commercial speakers, next !Posted by samuel33 on: 10/8/2007
Hi everyone,
First, thank you for all your advices.
The university take many most of my time, so listen to speaker had been difficult.
So......I come back with many things too tell, i have made some listening sessions to find a good speaker to work with (remember i just move in montreal),now i work on 500$ M-audio monitor spearkers that are just awfull.
I would be short, i've listen to :
-Wilson Watt/Puppy 8 : Ihave read everywhere that the mid bass of these speakers are "terrific"...indeed thez are blured.
The imaging and dynamics are great. They have REAL qualities (you will not agree but it's the case, sorry)
-Verity Audio Parsifal : the price is just a joke for what these speakers offer, so no need to go further (but some nice qualities on few points)
-Sonus faber stradivari : exactly what I hate, slow, boxy, boring, colored. 40 000$ of emptiness.
-Avalon Indra : perfect imaging, fast, gorgeous timbre, very detailed, NO box sound, invisible.... "not" expensive : 20 000$
I have compared them to the Eidolon Avalon 38 000$ weirdly i prefer -by far- the indra (it is maybe due to the fact that the indra have the new crossover technology from the Isis).
I have bought my amplifier on the second market : a gryphon antileon signature (at a great price).
I'm sure to buy a shindo "vosne romanee" : the best preamp in our solar system (or so).
I gonna listen some other speakers but i'm tired and i have to travel far for that....
Maybe i will just buy the avalon that are just perfectly coherent and for my taste...
Something to say?
