I just finished two days of attendance at IBMA - International Bluegrass Music Association Festival.
After listening to music live for two full days, it is the best compliment I can give to say listening to the same artists/songs on the 5T's takes me right back infront of the stage. Some speaker brands try to lure you in with their bright sparkly sound only to drive you away with their false attempt at reproducing music. Thanks to Aerial Acousitcs for delivering the real goods!
Sierra Hull lives in my den. She is everyone's darling. 2016 mandolin player of the year. Balsam Range and the rest of the so many other blue grass music is acoustic music you can feel in your soul.
To be total honest -
The only noticeable difference is the level of bass. While these speakers for their size provide exceptional levels of tight bass, the volume of the standup bass during the concert just goes that bit lower. The concerts also tend to jack up the volume I suspect. Nonetheless the bass impact is what one takes away.
I do have an M&K sub but it's not really a sub more of a bass unit purchased for sorround sound back in the 90's only goes down to 50hz.
Now what sub would do justice to these Aerials?
i was considering JL Audio e112.
