Shindo Latour vs Verity vs DeVore ..etc

Thanks for your replies. Can anyone comment on which speakers are detailed? Between the DeVores and the Verity's am I right in saying that the Veritys produce a bit more body in the bottom end whereas the deVores tend to be a little leaner? is this a right assessment? I know that the Latour is in a different league - but if I understnad right there are petite latours and smaller speakers from Shindo as well, dont know how good they are compared to their top of the line speakers though.
How do the Harbeth's compare to the Verity and DeVores?

thanks

I did hear all the speakers you mentioned in complete Shindo systems, albeit only for a short time, different rooms, and different amps.

All the speakers you mention excel at detail, especially in the context of a Shindo system. The Devore Super 8 (with a Aurieges and Montille) are very even handed, detailed, dynamic, with good resolution, but also tend to be a bit leaner in my experience. The Verity Parsival (with a Massetto and Corton-Charlemagne 80) are rich, detailed and very natural sounding. Plucked string instruments like oud and guitar are pleasure to listen to. The Latour (with a Monbrison and Haut Brion/Cortese) have what none of the others have - scale. They are unmatched in detail, unlimited depth and resolution.

All speaker are excellent but work in different applications and for slightly different tastes. The Devores work very well in smallish rooms with lower power Shindo amps, the Verity need more room to breath and much more power to come alive, the Latour need a soccer stadium.

Some speakers that I would look into as well but again very different directions: Cain & Cain Abbys, Klipsch La Scala and Auditorium Solovox.

I would recommend talking or better taking the trip to one of the excellent dealers that carry all three speakers: Matt at Pitch Perfect Audio, Don at Don Better, and Jonathan Halpern at In Living Stereo.

Have heard all the above. Went with the Reference 3A Grande Veenas.
Had Harbeths and Spendors before the 3as.

It's an old post, but what about horn speakers? Not Avante Guard, so this narrows it down to DIY, vintage (Altec, Klipsch), or super spendy speakers like Shindo or Cesaro. So what about it - any experience with high efficiency speakers with Shindo amps? I have an Aurieges mated to an Haut Brion that are looking for playmates. Looking down the Altec 19 road for a temp solution until I can build horn speakers.

I heard a pristine pair of Altec Valencia's (16 ohm version) in a Shindo system about 2.5 years ago. The amp was the Cortese; I do not recall which Shindo preamp was in use. Incredibly musical! I am certain that your Aurieges and Haut Brion would play quite nicely with the Valencia's. That is, if you can find a mint pair of Valencia's. They are hard to come by.
