The jump from D200 to D400

[teddlesdee]

I went with some Triangle Signature Delta? at around 4.5k when I got my first D200 and the combination was very good.
Then later decided to add a companion, thus D400, and I have to say I have not regretted this move.

There was a marked difference, even to my old ears, with clearer highs, tighter lows, overall better definition. So it actually brought out the best in the Deltas.
Since then, I hanker after a better speaker as I wonder what I am missing sonically (don't we all!), however I am painfully aware that the limiting factor is more likely to be the performance of my ears.

Nevertheless, worth trying when I have time....Don't get me wrong, the Deltas are way better than I expected, and improved by the move up to D400, and they are Wife-friendly, so when I have time I want to try some WA Sabrinas although I think I would have to sell my soul (or maybe the Wife!) to afford!

Great post and very interesting. The Triangle signature Alpha? are on my shortlist. They are about 6k. i think that the 400 would be too good for my 23s but it wouldnt make them any worse i would doubt, and I dont drive them to crazy volumes. The speakers could be upgraded later.
I think the 400 would make my system better, it has to surely.....but yes the speaker upgrade would be done at a later date.
I would think selling your soul is cheaper than selling your wife....in the long run  

Actually Womaz (don't you hate people who start a sentence with "Actually"!), these Deltas are the very same (In piano black) that scared my wife rigid (hee-hee) when they turned up unannounced a good 7 months ago! Being very 'little' they are the same height as her! ...but given time, she has learned to live with them thankfully! Got them on a whim direct from France - Now like them a lot! The Alphas I would think, would be even better given the extra woofer & taller. ...but, you know.... we are a restless bunch, always thinking the 'grass-is-greener...'
