Has anyone actually heard the Dali Epikore 11? Impressions welcome.
I had the opportunity to hear the Epikore 11 last week.  They are very musical, present an enormous soundstage, instrument and voice detail is second to none.  I can't say enough good about them! Currently I own Dali Epicon 8s, and find they poss... 
YouTube Indicates What the Future is For Audiophiles - Interesting Demographics.
Well I guess I’m 2 for 2!  I collect antique clocks and own way too many audio systems. Two declining hobbies. At 74 I’ll just continue to enjoy both.

Autocorrect changed my text! I entered Kore, Epikore 11, and Epicon 8. Sorry for the unintended changes.

I've not yet heard the Epicure 11s, but did audition the Epicure.  While some may frown on this comment; what steve59 wrote about the 11s, are how I describe my Dali Epicene 8s.  Oh so musical, enormous sound stage, and as a musician friend said r...

I’m not sure where you’re located. Safe and Sound in Chicopee MA is a brick and mortar store. They carry a wide array of speaker brands and modles, all I stock available to audition and immediate delivery.  Chec them out their website’

I was a long term KEF owner. 107s for 26 years as well as others incl 205.3 and 205.2. I lites to current Ref 3 and 5 and Blades. All sounded great but not a huge improvement over the 205.2s. Fine speakers one and all. To my ear the Dali’s have a ...

Do you owm the Personas now?  They’re definitely a fine speaker and good looking too. For me, my room and electronics, they just seemed a on the harsh side in the upper end. I finally settled on DALI Epicon 8s. I find them very musical and have be... 
How old are you?

Easily the best and most significant sonic tweak one could ever make!
I agree!  After a lifetime of virtually no hearing in my left ear, (Measels at age 2) I needed hearing assist in my right ear.  I got fitted for a right aid, and a cross aid for the left ear.  The cross sends sound to the right via radio frequency...

I’d love to have the opportunity to hear Fritz’s speakers.  Anyone in central NY own a pair they’d care to demo??

Give Dali Epicon 8 a listen.

Boy are your observations on target!  Then there’s the electronics, the cables, the room, the furniture, carpet or lack thereof, and so many other variables.  Finally, there’s our individual perceptions.  Ah to have a large room filled with many c...

I responded to the dealer, but never heard back.  I like them, but find the high end a bit too bright, and they can't match the upper/mid bass of my KEF 205s.  So the search goes on! 
Another Music Direct Catalog observation
Great choices oreganpapa!  I'm a boomer, mostly listen to all of the jazz great vocalists from the era of your posted videos.  Also a big Joni Mitchell fan.  Admitedly, I don't listen to a lot of current artists, but I do own Ed Sheran vinyl.  I'v...
