Yesterday after 3.5 years i sold my stereo gold .
I had an amazing time with them !
Pop.funk.rock.classics it was my high end sound companion for a long time .
So as this forum .

@Snoopy8 thanks.
Unfortunately Buchardt don't have representative im my country.
So i listen today to the ls60 and the b&w Formation i was so disappointed from the ls60.
The sound stage was so thin and numb compare to the golds .
Im Darko YouTube channel you think you can buy tech stuff by "pros" opinion that's bull****
Go to listen yourself .
I enjoyed theb&w much more .the con is that they dont have any physical connections at all 🤷‍♂️

Buchardt have a 45 day try at home process

And I think there A500s are much better than the LS60 and will beat the Phantom Gold's. While the bass of the Gold's is louder, it is probably too much?

Yeah, always hard. I think on particular issue is there is the volume. Phantoms really start to shine at a bit higher volumes while Darko seems to enjoy listening at a bit lower volumes. But this is just a guess as I had a similar experience with listening to speakers he praised.

Looking forward to your posts on the A700.

@Snoopy8
I got the a700 today .
Il owes you a BIG THANKS !
This is one h e l l of a speakers !
So different from Devialet in a way the ear cant explain .
The bass is so tight and snappy and the components of the speakers act as like your your in a rock concert .
And of course room correction .
Didnt have a chance to play with master tunning .but il guess il try that in the next few days .
Im so glad i did this move and ordered them .

Il wait a while until they open up completely around 150h but they are amazing !
