Anyone here who has heard any speakers from Scansonic, mainly from the MB series. They are coming out with a new one called the MB-6 that I am intrested in.

Guillaume has, and he thought the MB_2.5 was the budget bargin of the year... he probably will give his own in depth soon here on the forum

MB-6, please send some info! I am going Aavik quite soon so family signature speakers are interesting, though I already have Raidho X1 but will pick up the speaker chase asap Aavik is cooked in fully in my system.

I have only seen them on Scansonic Facebook page but they look really intresting. Seems to be a MB-2.5 but with the addition of 4 more woofers, really like the slim tall speaker but if there is no grill it is a no no for me with small children. I have sent an email to the Swedish agent to se if I can get some more info on them. I like the fact that they dont have any side mounted woofers, Scansonic is writing 9000€ for them. I am hoping they will be shown in Malmö (Sweden) at the fair in october.

Thanks, they look amazing, this may just be a new candidate for me, talk about going on the other far end from Raidho X1....
I also have toddlers at home but I managed to get them house-hifi broken... though my previous speakers had a few adjustments from plastic hammers and flying lego...

I think we will have to tell our hifi pimp to bring home a Scansonic so we can test it.

The MB-6 is going to be at the fair in Malmö in october. Price and specs are coming this week according to the Swedish agent.

Those are a bit too big for me, but I like the look of the 2.5 and 3.5 (looks being important in my lounge setup), and the price seems pretty good if the first impressions are fair.

Looking forward to trying to hear some here in the UK. I'd like a slightly less clinical and warmer sound than my Facts, and also a little more BASS THUMP.

Looking forward to hearing your reports….

I heard the Scansonic MB 2.5 in Munich and loved them, actually Kunter was with me too... we were both amazed at their ability to deliver a very wide and convincing 3D soundstage (and it was a big room!). For relatively small speakers and low price point (€2,900?) these speakers really do punch above their weight. They were being played alongside some really serious Raidho offerings. Absolute bargain if you ask me.

Of course these were partnered with the excellent Aavik U-300 amplifier (and top of the range Ansuz cables) so I've no idea how good they would sound with the Devialet in a typical setup. I can't imagine they will sound bad though. They do have a bit of the Raidho house sound so they might not be for everyone.

Bass-wise I'm not sure. I just remember being amazed by their "big room" sound almost disbelieving that the sound was coming from the 2.5 and not from one of the bigger Raidho speakers on display.

Ditto to Guillaume...

Pretty soon I will be hearing them here in Turkey as some company is starting to import them.

The MB 2.5 was simply breathtaking. Did not care much for the 3.5 though...

If I have the chance to test with Devialet, will report back here...

Cheers...
