I auditioned a pair of Kudos Cardea C30s yesterday as an upgrade to EPOS ES30s which are a tad bass shy at lower volume levels. While the C30s are clearly a step up in many ways and teh mid range is simply sublime, I didn't hear the deep and powerful bass I was expecting most of the time. On some CDs however, the bass was much more pronounced so am left wondering: are my expectations valid, or is it that the way most CDs are mastered means deep bass just isn't there? For example, playing some Phil Collins, I would expect the kick drum to come thumping through - the rest of the kit does but not the bass drum as much as I would expect.
I'm left wondering whether I should invest in a pair of subs instead...and/or save up for something altogether bigger like a pair of Wilsons?
Front end is a Wadia 861 and a pair of Muse 300W mono blocks so there should be enough grunt on tap! Room is 4m x 4m
