I know what you mean and it does get better. That ovephisized upper mid cleared up for me just recently. Some audio things go through several changes during a long breakin period...in my experience.

Soundstage Heresy IV and Forte IV
I am interested in understanding the difference in soundstage between Heresy IV and Forte IV and the reasons for the difference.
Bass I can get, but concerning soundstage, what is causing the difference?
I hear that Forte soundstage is better than Heresy, but I also hear that the Cornwall soundstage is better than Forte. Arent Cornwall and Heresy using the same mid and tweeter components? Then why would Forte have better soundstage than Heresy?

How long did the break-in take? I simply couldn't stand that sound over 2 months, but the good news is that the IIIs with the subs and amps I use are so damn good that the only reason I'd replace them is simple curiosity...Heresy speakers are seriously underrated in my book, and sort of a bargain really. |
@tonydennison absolutely my friend! |
I loved my H3... the Forte is just more of good thing. Just as the Cornwall is more of a good thing.... and on up the line. Sometimes I will feel like an image is wrapping around from front to rear or sometimes things go well beyond the speaker. They are great with tubes but also with good solid state electronics. I recently drove the Forte IV with my new Cyrus 40 watt integrated. It sounded awesome. I kept that amp in my main room for over two weeks. It has great detail and an excellent sense of pace and rhythm. It had no problem driving those speakers to generous levels. It didn't have quite the tone that I appreciate with a good tube amp but man it sounded good. Like Heresy, Forte really sing with a great amp. I use mine mainly with a 7 watt 300b amp and they sound so good together. |
