A very good speaker with lots of potential, a bit of playing around with position, might work very nicely corner loaded; the port down fires, get it off the carpet on a plinth. In my opinion they need an amp with a bit of power speed and punch. Very good imaging, and they certainly can disappear. Very good wide sound stage. Compression driver needs a bit more time to break in.
This is a very good horn speaker, why because it does not sound like a horn speaker, bet if you covered them most would not guess it was a horn. Yet it has all the dynamics and the live performance real music type of sound that a good horn can do like no other. Not analytical or fatiguing. Spent over three hours today listening to them.
Came away very impressed, I was not jumping tracks, but listening to the music; always a good indication to me at least that a speaker is good.
Very well made and finished, and in my opinion a lot better sounding to me at least, than some hyped up speakers I have heard at two to three times the price.
They are two ways, I have always preferred a two way speaker as I am very sensitive to how a speaker integrates, this is not a problem with a good two way.
They get a big
up from me, and I am very hard to please. This is a no bull speaker, they just play great music. Everything sounded good; nothing can play a wind instrument like good a horn speaker, these certainly fit the bill.
Cant wait to hear them in Francios sound room when completed.
Thanks again Francios for letting me play with all your all kit; I had a great time getting lost in the music, and that is the whole point is it not.
