I just bought a Yamaha CD s300 to replace my 13 year old Cambridge Audio CD player which bit the dust a while back. Pulled out a 15 year old Teac 1250 CD player to use in the interim. The new Yamaha blows both of the older units out of the water. I can't believe the sound I am hearing from...
Forward sounding without being harsh is fine. The C 601 while somewhat laid back is not as laid back as the Jamo C 603 I demoed first. Sounds like the detail on the 220's is far better than most speakers in its price class.
My cables should help reduce any potential harsh character a song...
Drummerman. Excellent insight into the company's various lines. Not at all familiar with them. While I have known for a couple of years that the Diamond line is top notch for an entry level speaker I have had absolutely no chance to demo them or any other speaker by them. Currently I live...
Jerry. Excellent info. Thanks.
I have a pair of heavy duty 26 inch steel stands (tripod) that originally retailed for $300 USD. Got them for next to nothing. My guess is they will be adequate for either the Denton's or 220's.
The Zensor line appears to be discontinued. It is still...
For some reason Dali speakers are priced at roughly twice the cost in the USA when compared to England. Someone else on another forum also recommended the Usher speakers. That has possibilities. Little question the Denton will sound good in that room based upon the numerous reviews I've read...
Seriously considered these as well as the Zensor 1's which Stereophile ranks as far superior to its price. The What HiFi review says they are a little unrefined which may not be a good attribute in a room with plaster walls and hardwood flooring.
Can these be placed closer than 2 feet to the...
Thanks for letting me know this Andy. At least now I know if a post does not appear right after I create it, it is under review by the Moderator. Been there, done that with a forum I used to run until recently. :-)
The Amp may need a breaking in period just like speakers. A few years ago I purchased a Qinpu A 3 hybrid tube/solid state amp. It did not sound that great out of the box. Rolled the tubes after a few hours and then let it stay on for something like 48 straight hours. Suddenly the sound...
Debating as to which pair to buy. Living in the USA but can't seem to find any reviews from people that have owned or tried both pairs of speakers.
Quick background. I have a house with plaster walls and hardwood floors. The room where the speakers will be located has 9 foot high ceilings...
Currently residing in the USA. In the market for a new pair of speakers and decided that since I am looking at buying a speaker from Wharfedale what better place to get some feedback than from a UK forum.
