I wonder what Paul is doing with his IRS V’s now?

He moved them into another listening room at PS Audio. He will never get rid of them. Mean too much to him.

 

Thanks.

Nice to have speakers like that along with them being a barometer for his own efforts.

lol. I immediately thought of that when I first saw them. It’s undeniable in white.  

I have been on the Montreal Show.

I think FR30 are good speakers. They can be a good competitors for Focal Utopia series and B&W 800 series. But these speakers are not my cup of tea.

I listen classical music and jazz I don’t listen to modern POP and EDM. So for me good high sensitive speakers with SET amplifier sound most natural and close to real acoustical instrument performance in terms of soundstage and instruments size as well as natural tone of instrument and a real musical performance.

I liked the Coherent Speakers / Allnic Audio T-1500 room. IMHO is was the best in this show. The 18 inch speaks sounded very dynamic with deep well defined bass. These speakers are really phenomenal. Unbelievable combination of high sensitivity and deep controlled bass, natural tone, transparency and texture.
