Speakers are quite a personal choice and room interaction is also hard to predict. As David has already pointed out, if possible, a home demo is a must. Once at home for me the most significant tweak has always been, by a long stretch, speaker positioning. Once you have lived with the speakers for a good while and breaking period is behind you, it's time to fine tune them in the space of the room. That fine tuning, done with friends whose taste and capacity to appreciate music you trust (in my case also my girlfriend), is what has made the difference between boredom or goosebumps. I recently attended a demo where a setup almost identical to mine was being shown. The room was extensively and I would say exquisitely treated, still the sound, somehow, was just uninspiring, lacking the presence, spatiality and vividness of mine at home (I suspect the main reason was the speakers being too far into the room where you could barely feel the bass and attack of notes). Last, personal taste should be the final judge. Never buy according to brand or even rave reviews, get the ones that make you cry of emotion every time you play your favorite cuts! (easier said than done I know!) ML RE: Speaker upgrade options, options, options - AaronG - 09-Oct-2015 If your looking for SAM ready speakers, the Gauders I just bought are superb. The look really nice too. RE: Speaker upgrade options, options, options - NickB - 09-Oct-2015 Have offered once before and if you are interested I have D400 and Magico S5 here, think I am not a million miles from you.

They are for sale haha! Great sound and integration, just not totally what I was looking for (I had original CLS's for 10 years) That aside, I've really enjoyed the Sophia (both 2 and 3) and they are probably the best wilson sound per pound. I've not heard the Sabrina unfortunately, Ken Kessler gushed over them in Hi-Fi news, but that's hardly a surprise. They are always personal though (as is every other piece of equipment) so demo what you can. Best of luck! |
