High Fidelity Sound Speaker

Strange comment larry8729. Why would you trust a sound engineer (whatever that is) to tell you what the best speakers in a certain price category are? Don't you think that in the end that's a personal decision based on listening?


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sound engineers know the marketing ads are full of snakeoil


From reading some posts here lately, seems this speaker thing is all about individual choice.
This is what I've summed up lately,, Which is a bit weird to me, But it is what IT is.


My personal preference is to exclude all and every low sens/xover type speakers for Front Center principle speaker.
These guys are only good as assist for my FR.
FR is the only, excluding every other design , as my 1st and only choice of listening to my classical music.
I've tried the low sens /xover type designs..
They just did not work out.
But of course this is a free choice world we live in, 
There are hundreds of speakers avaliable. Something for everyone.

I am sorry, but I have no idea what you are talking about, no matter how many times you post.  


You know Audiogon would be a nicer place w/o folks like you
There's a  art guy here in new orleans who makes signs that reads,,and sells well,
Be Nice or Leave.
I don't subscribe to that slogan,,but  here in  your case  its appropriate.

bump...

Well I only listen to you tube on my cell phone or my 4k speakers.....so I could never tell....lol

WEll I can get a  hint , Fostex FR has a bit of shouty-iness, some spikes in certain fq's. 
 I hear no such shouty in the DLVX8.

For me YT , if you hear enough videos , you can hint at how tonal a  speaker voices.
Fostex will not replace my DLVX8's. 

I guess you want me to list the things  I don't like about how the DLVX  voices,,as no speaker is perfect..
OK here's my list
1)....
2)...
3)...
and so on...
btw all my recent vids are with KT88's 4000++ hrs on them. 
So the DLVX8 is not being juiced with brand new EH KT88's, which could/might add even more on top end.

Just keep that in mind.
I pulled the paper tweet. 
Great for jazz, not for complex orchestra.
But then again,, the breakup in the paper tweet ,  just might be the KT88's breaking up in certain violin passages of the Schnittke/Kremer/Eschenbach/Teldec, also the Teldec recording might not  have some issues in the upper registers.

As we know classical recordings are not hifi quality.
So again, all factors need to be considered when reviewing any speaker.
Tube life?
Quality of recording?
small rm size/mid SPL/no room treatment?

All things considered the DLVX8 ain't too shabby a speaker.
Jazz fans delight.
FR for R&R,, highly not recommended. HT purposes, not recommended. 
FR is best for classical genre, almost a  must have
Jazz fans will be ~~utterly~ thrilled and delighted  with a  FR 's magic. 
Fostex has issues with some of its drivers in shouty-iness, peaky fq.s
