![]() Smooth, buttery mids that I initially found to be unnaturally so listening to choral music, but which grew on me over the hour I listened to them. Only had about 20 minutes with these, long enough to know that my favourites were. Dealer seemed to be singing the praises of these speakers more than was warranted. I said as much to the dealer (a friendly and obliging chap) who mentioned that they hadn't been fully run in yet and he didn't normally pair them with the ATC amp. They look pretty in the walnut finish, so WAF. Didn't bother to listen to these for more than 5 minutes I'm sorry to say. Mids weren't as beguiling as my preferred speakers. Imaging/instrument separation was poor during busy layered orchestral passages. I listened to these immediately after my favourite of the bunch and two songs were enough to know they were not for me. The order below is from least preferred to most preferred sound Smallish treated room with speakers about 80cm out from rear wall. Transport - An Auralic streamer of some description I'm recording my thoughts here before I forget them. I listened to 3 sets of speakers at a by-appointment hifi store today. Was just not impressed anymore once I saw the price YG Audio: Heard their smallest speaker (cern) and was really impressed! Could run them without a sub (or go one mode/size up), they managed a lot of bass that sounded pretty good. That voxativ driver was really nice though. PAP: was in a small room and the bass was just all over the place. KEF: Heard the LS50 meta before, sound good but they need a sub to complete the package Disappointing because I always thought I'd get a 40 when I get a bigger place, but I'm not writing them off yet. With a sub I'm sure they'd be amazing, I'm still thinking about them if I can vibe with the designĪTC: Heard the SCM100 and found the mids too forward - to the point of being unbalanced. Jern: Very impressive imaging, but lacking bass (extension and amount). ![]() ![]() Missing sparkle and detail imo (and I thought it was kinda ugly) Also heard them with the BX3 and didnt think they needed it.įyne: Heard their biggest speaker, wasnt impressed. I liked them, but wouldnt spend that money as I think you could get a better setup at the price. I'll give my one liners below, take them with a pinch of salt because these were impressions with music I'm not completely familiar with Click to expand.I heard a few of these at the "Dutch Audio Event" this weekend.
