Ref 3A Veena - Devore Gibbon 8 - Audiophysic Yara


Hello -
I am looking into getting a different pair of speakers then my Spendor S6e. Looking for a different presentation(more open, more detail and a bit more bass) then what I am getting with the Spendors.

Does anybody have any experience with the Veena, Gibbon8 or the new Audio P. Yara Superior?

I use a tubed Pre-amp, with a solid State Classe CA-101 Amp.

Thanks!

I have the Gibbon 8's and the bass is spectacular for such a small floorstander, better than three or four other similarly priced and highly regarded speakers I've had. I can't compare them with your other options, however. The Gibbons are one of the most satisfying pieces of audio equipment I've ever bought.
Mira's are most likely way out of my budget(most of the speakers I listed are pretty much at the same price point new 3k), my room is not very wide 10 feet by about 21 feet long. Though on the right speaker I have another 8 feet or so open for the dining room area as you go up one step.

Thanks Sfar, for the info. Do you have a small or large room and what are you driving the Gibbons with?

My room is 11 x 17, though the listening area is realistically 11x14, and the speakers are approximately centered on the long wall.

I use two amp setups, depending on the season, a Simaudio I-5 integrated (solid state) and an AES Cary AE-25 triode tube amp with an AES-DJH Signature preamp. The tubes are for cool weather, most of the year here, and the Simaudio for the summer. Both rigs sound wonderful with the Gibbons.
