Sns, I know they are sweet. Might try to take the jump up the signature se, or whichever one Vu suggested to me in the past as the next logical move up. I might just have to drive to Virginia and do some listening. The Soros amp is integrated, so helps my space issue that’s coming with the move. Could be a perfect, expensive fix! Lol
Attention Horn Owners
Hey guys. I’m in the middle of making a few changes and seek your wisdom and help. Doing my research for speakers, I currently own Audio Note e/lx, and I think I might need a little more bass presence. These are wonderful, natural sounding speakers but I’m debating a change. Slightly more efficient would be nice, the AN’s are listed at 94db but some say measure closer to 92db. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Now for the post title. Doing my research I came across Volti. I like purchasing American made when I can, my amp and preamp are Aric Audio. I’ve never heard a horn speaker before. Reviews of some say they tend to be bright, which is a no go for my sensitive ears. Reviews did mention that Volti are not bright. So, any comments regarding ear fatigue and horn speakers or Volti speakers would be fantastic.
‘Finally, I live on Long Island. If there is any nearby who would be kind enough to allow me to listen to a horn speaker, there’s a six pack or bottle of wine in it for you! lol. I’d love to hear a pair before I spend 1 million hours researching different ones. Thanks in advance. Earthbound

meanwhile, not horns, but full range 4 way, renewed woofers, not far from you https://longisland.craigslist.org/ele/d/west-islip-vintage-jbl-way-speakersnew/7861925162.html I'd want to hear them if easy. |

The Class D have 100W into 8 Ohm and 200W into 4 Ohm. I am not sure if it is a logarithmic scale, but somewhere between 100 and 200W should have no trouble with pushing a 90dB speaker. AN lists your speaker at 94dB, btw. The Class D have great bass, imo. If I had less sensitive speakers, I think I would be 100% satisfied with the Atmasphere Class Ds. I have, however, owned 97+ dB speakers since my first foray into real HiFi, MidFi if you are going by price??, but I would put my system up against about any other for my taste. Rethm Maarga were my first real speakers. |
