Having moved from Silver to Gold, to Ls50w (for a few days) then back to Gold - then to Kii Three.....
I am thinking of going back to Phantoms after selling my Kii (having bought some in ear headphones which I couldn’t really afford and made me realise £7k on speakers is a bit overkill for me )
Anyway - having been out the game for a while I have a few questions
1) Can they repair classics yet? It was one of the reasons I got out as to started to worry about the value crashing once out of warrantee.
2) I never really played above 70 - usually more like 60. How close are the little reactors to the gold sound wise if I don’t need the extra power?
3) Any opinions on Gold phantoms compared to a Devialet d200 amp and some £2k ish used SAM enabled bookshelfs like the Atom / PMC fact 3 / focal / raidho
I started lusting over one of their amps - but if the phantom electronics / sound quality are pretty much the same then probably I would go for them again as I don’t really want to start box swapping again
Any opinions welcomed
