Hi everyone,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
I have a pair of Golds and a Dialog on DOS 1 which I absolutely love. I listen to everything from classical to bass heavy house and the Gold Phantoms are always engaging and fun to listen with.
Ive recently decided to get a reactor for travel and to add a second one later. I couldnt find any meaningful comparisons between the 600W and 900W versions and the frequency range was to same so I saved some money and bought a 600W model. However, I'm dissapointed with the volume and bass - I know its not a Gold Phantom whihc is my original frame of reference, and I know it will not go as loud, and I also know a stereo pair will sound much better!
But, before I commit to another 600W model I'm thinking maybe I should get a 900W instead and then get a second one later.
My question to anyone who's properly compared both;
How much louder is the 900W, and how much more defined is the bass and bass impact? Maybe its a subjective question but if you stood in the same position as I am in now, what did you choose and why?
Thanks in advance for any input
