Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti
I've had these early prototype Volti speakers I bought from Greg 8-10 years ago, but I am set up in the living room with these large speakers . Family and friends always complain about the size, and I just ignore them. Lately, my wife who agreed to the purchase has been grumbling about their size.
I've been considering going to a more normal sized speaker, but want to keep most of Volti horn sound. I drag in my Joseph Audio RM25xl speakers and after a few days, I drag the Volti's back in.
Using Atma-Sphere D amps and Mp3 preamp. Bricasti dac and Elrod cables. I stuck an old picture in systems so you get the idea of the scale. I will get new pictures later and finish system.
I know it's unlikely, but maybe one of you can think of something.
They are wide but not oversized for the space. I’d fight to keep them if you like them. What’s the big deal? If it’s something that takes up less floor space I’d be considering KEF ref 3 meta or maybe a pair of Revel towers. Triangle is another I would consider. The Atmas Class D amps should be up to the task of my driving most any speakers well I would expect. Or maybe go for broke freeing up space and give KEF ls60s a chance. |
Here, just get these and be done with it… https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650017479-joseph-audio-pearl-3-speakers/ |

They really don’t seem to be imposing at all. And as mentioned, you are not going to get “that sound” from anything but another horn speaker. Tell your friends to pound sand, it’s your system and your home. Try to be a little more diplomatic with your spouse. Fair but firm. Any options for moving the whole enchilada into a dedicated room where no one but you has to see it? |
