Based on my experiences with six pairs of Reynaud speakers, currently Bliss Jubilee and Abscisse Jubilee, Reynaud's don't do "chubbier" bass at any level. They will do more with the Abscisse, Voce Grande and the two Orfeo versions but it it still won't be "chubbier." Those models will certainly go deeper than your Cantabile but the "character" of the bass won't be different. What you will lose though as you go up the line from your speaker is the character from the silk dome tweeter as it's replaced by the AMT of the higher models. From my experience those models require a bit more careful planning in terms of what's in front of them. And though still front ported they require a bit more breathing room.
Reynaud Bliss Jubile vs Cantabile Jubile
Has anyone here heard the latest iterations of these two soeakers and can describe the differences. I've read Bob Neill's write-up of these two on his website, but the descriptions are a bit hard for me to grasp, perhaps not specific enough for me. They're also written by someone who is trying to sell them. I'd like to hear from those who might not have as much of stake in the game. Bob does think the Cantabile is the better speaker, but is it a small improvement or a significant one?
It's also hard to find reviews on these. There are a couple out the, but not comparing to each other.
Thanks for any insights here.
