Von Schweikert DB99 vs Consonance M15-thoughts?


I own the db99's. running with 16 wpc set monos. I just heard the new Consonance M15 horn speaker and thought the M15's actually sounded better. to me it sounded open and has tighter bass than the db99's. hard to believe, but could this be a better speaker than the 99's? anyone compared these ? thanks

Hello Cooch,

How lucky it is for you that a nice dealer like Steve Monte carries both the speakers you are interested in. Also, he has them both in the same room where you audition them with the same equipment.

I have not heard the DB-99's.

As much as I like lowfidilety ( great guy ) I respectfully disagree with his opinion of the M15's. I heard them on 2 occasions and both times I really found them to be among other things very colored and not coherent. This only my opinion and others may disagree. So please audition if you can.

All the best,
Tom
see if this works . i wanted to say that my db 99's have the add on ribbon super tweeter, if anyone is familiar with it. i was trying to compare these with the m15's.
