Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation
I have been living with these speakers a little over a week now. To say I’m impressed would be an understatement. They do so much right and so little wrong. It’s a shame that this company had to call it quits. So much performance from what is essentially a modestly sized enclosure, they completely fill my 400+ sq. ft. room with beautiful sound. I’m just starting this thread to echo what’s already been said about Verity speakers.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is someone who never in his life has heard a Verity Audio speaker but insists on posting such crap. At the very least it makes one suspect about anything else he posts. It certainly shows he is ignorant about the design concept and the flexibility of that design in placement of the speakers in room.
Sometimes you have to shake your head at what gets posted in this forum passing for knowledge. |

The Parsifal was Verity Audio's first speaker launched 30 years ago, and the rear firing bass has been a constant in most of their other designs. With the Parsifal Ovation you can flip the bass around and have the woofer and bass port face forward. Why would you do this? You would do this if you had to place the speaker against the wall. If the bass unit is facing backwards (ie facing the front wall) the speakers need to be several feet from the wall. This feature gives you flexibility in placement options. I recently moved my Parsifal Ovations to a second system where they are against the wall with the bass unit facing forward, and it works well and sounds superb in that particular situation. |
It's sad that you have to explain. Anyone remotely familiar with Verity Audio would already know this. Especially @sounds_real_audio, since he seems have a handle on how they sound and promotes himself as the "resident expert"..... |
