ghdprentice,
I ordered the Clarisys Minuet. Hopefully, I will have them soon. Maybe this week, but probably next week.

What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first?
Hi everyone,
I’m in the midst of my speaker search and curious about something.......as noted above. There are some brands I would be interested in based on reputation, reviews, looks etc but may never be able to hear first.
I’m curious what the collective group thinks would be a safe choice having never heard them first. I know there are variables as in size of room, current gear etc. Just want to see what people would suggest. The one I would note based on what I have read is Joseph Audio. I’d also be curious if people would say the same about Borresen.
So it may be a frivolous exercise but I’ll ask the question anyway. Let me know your thoughts.
@perkadin thanks man. That shot doesn't show the signed Trey poster off to the right! Now that i've adjusted to them they fit in quite nicely, but took a couple days to get used to. Oh and BTW they are sublime thus far. One thing I did notice is just how deep vertically the soundstage is now vs. what I had prior. I'm not sure if that's because the tweeter is 8" or more above the ear, but man it's working for me thus far. I need to keep tweaking toe in....having friends over tonight to debut and will get their opinions. |
@ozzy yes the Clarisys Minuet were fantastic when I heard them at this years Axpona. There were only 2 speakers that I was considering from listening to 80% of the rooms at Axpona, the Clarisys Minuet or the Franco Serblin Ktema's. (OK there was a 3rd...the Borresen M6 at just under $300,000 although I'd be homelss if I bought them not to mention 7 inches shorter!!!!) I did go with the Ktema's and after 8 days of non-stop playing they are sounding WONDERFUL. I'm thrilled and hope you are as well. Keep us informed on your thoughts. (Dealer disclaimer) |
