Thanks, Ron. I’ve added Rockports to my list to audition at AXPONA. I’ve read about them before and they get rave reviews. Thanks again — appreciate your comments on the FR30s too.
Good speakers for Parasound Halo JC1
I have all Parasound Halo electronics — JC1 amps, JC2 BP preamp, JC3 Phono amp, and CD1 CD player — and love them all. Wonderful detail but plenty of bottom end.
My speakers are Usher MD2 — nice sound, respectable speakers but I’m ready to take the plunge and move up.
I’m headed to AXPONA in a few weeks and want to audition potential replacement speakers. I’d be interested to hear what speakers you’ve heard that are awesome matches for the JC1s. My room is mid-size that will accommodate decent size but not huge boxes.
Thanks all.

@mikempls There will be multiple rooms with rockport speakers this year. i think at least two with the atria II and one with Cygnus. i owned the Atria II for two years and loved them. I paired them with 2 jl f100v2 subs to great results. i just upgraded to the Cygnus my endgame speaker. My room is only 17 x15 but they sound great in the room. |
OP since you didn't mention what your cabling and PLC are...? I replaced mine about 6 months ago and was shocked at the improvement over pretty expensive Wire World series 8 speaker cables and interconnects I replaced them with Odin 2 knockoffs from DIY HiFi Store in China at a fraction the the cost of the WW s hth |
