I will change my speakers soon, i own a pair of Talon Raven C. I REALLY like them but want to get better performancies, especially in the medium. The Raven are really ok but i know that i can get more air, a bigger soundstage. I don't want something that sound thin to get that result. Also i want to keep really good bass.
I have a budget around 10.000$. So far i kept on my shortlist the following (used) speakers : Avalon Eidolon Talon Firebird Wilson Watt Puppy 6
So if you heard those 3 speakers (or 2) let me know what you think. By the way i'm open to other speakers if you think you know one that compares nicely with the 3 above.
The Firebirds are in a different ballpark versus the Ravens. Everything you like about the Ravens but better and they have the mid-range that the Ravens lack only in direct comparison.
Ndeslions, actually I spoke to Mike at Talon yesterday and he has a new speaker coming out that he says is better then the Firebirds for less money. It uses 2-8" drivers instead of the larger woofers in his other designs.
