Kharma Ceramique 1.1 or Verity Parsifal Encore?


Existing gear: Audio Aero Capitole MKII
KR8000 monoamps
Audio Note ANVx IC
Cardas Golden 5C speaker cables

I need a quality speaker to complete my system and have shortlisted Kharma Ceramique 1.1 and Verity Parsifal Encore. Pricewise, they are competitors. If I go for the Kharma, I'll wire the entire system with Kharma Grand Ref. cables.
I like a smooth, lush and seductive sound. The KRs are a bit aggressive. Due to geographical limitations, trying the speakers before purchase is not feasible. Room size: 15X26 ft. Music: classicals (mostly piano), jazz but also pop. Fellow audiogoners, your advice would be much appreciated. Thnks

Whitout thinking twice i will go to Parsifal the most beatifull midrange i ever heard!Very real bass for the size.If you have a good synergy in the rest of your systeem it is very musical and organic.
The only thing which i like in Kharmas is the soundstage they put a real and big soundstage for you but the tonal balance is bright and agresive.The mids dont have body,ambieance and emotion!If you like power and show Kharma.If you like music rafinement organic feeling and tears in your eyes Parsifal!
"The mids don't have body, ambiance, and emotion!!" You've got to be kidding??!! I own the Ceramique 1.0' and this is exactly what the Kharma's do so well. I haven't heard the Parsifal's, but please do not insult our intelligence with statements like that.
I run AA Capitole into the Bat 150ses
to the Parsifals. These speakers are very smooth.
With my amps the 8 0hm taps work the best. You also
get to fire the woofer forward or to the rear,depending on room. These speakers are very fexible.
