Rockport Mira VS Verity Parsifal Ovation

Parsifal Ovation will arrive in late Jan but they won't bring them in for home audition unless I decide to grab on their products. IAV won't import Mira for demo saying it's not worth pair for making sales.

Parsifals.

To my hears ALL Rockports sound dull and without tremble although they offer the best bottom end available!

Argyro...what amps did you listen to the Rockports with? Your Wavacs are a very nice match with your Sarastros because they are easy to drive (especially given their benign impedance). If you tried the Wavacs with the Rockports they would not have had had enough juice to showcase the dynamics of the speaker. On the treble, you are certainly correct that the treble region is not spotlit, maybe even polite, but the detail is all there. it's just not highlighted. Just curious. Thx

I have listened to the rockports with two different hybrid Lamm amps! Don't get me wrong rockport is a nice speaker I just think the Parsifal is better in what matters most for me, unamplified music! Probably for rock or maybe metal the rockport would be a better choice !;)

happy listening

Argyro...I am not offended by your preference for Verity over Rockport :-) I like both speakers a lot as you could probably tell from my lengthy responses to the OP above. I was just wondering what you had auditioned the Rockports with to make sure it was a good match for the speaker. You have a beautiful system. I am sure it sounds amazing. Are you in the States or in Greece? Also have you had a chance to listen to Verity's new Leonore speaker (replacement for the Fidelio)? I would be very interested in your impressions if you had heard them. Thx
