How is the low end on the djangos L ?
Wilson Sofia 2 vs marten dajango L
I have narrowed my selection to the two speakers Wilson Sofia 2 vs marten django. I currently run all mcintosh mc 500 amps and I also need a speaker where I can match with a center speaker . I haven't heard any Martens speakers so how will they compare to the wilsons ? My room is 14 x 20 stereo/home theater room....I listen from acoustic rock to Pearl Jam mostly from my VPI turntable ....any input would help before I pull the trigger budget around 5k give or take .....thank you

I am staying with all McIntosh ...what speakers do you feel are a good match with the MC501s ....any suggestions ?You should treat them as you would a good tube amp, as the output transformers are the limiting factor to how nastier load they can handle. I would say look for speakers that don’t dip below 4ohms and have less than -30 phase angle with that 4ohm frequency. As in the Martins case above at 65hz a combination of 5ohms with -45 degree phase angle could represent an EPDR load to the amp of around 2ohms. And 65hz is the power area needed for bass. EPDR= equivalent peak dissipation resistance Wilson Alexia’s have an EPDR at 65hz of .9ohm!!!!!!!! Notice the simiarlity with the Danjo graph at 65hz? http://www.stereophile.com/images/1213Walexfig01.jpg Cheers George |
