Tidal Speakers owners

Rjthomas4, both Bostonbean and myself own Piano Diaceras. I assume your room is large enough to support the Contrivas? Like yourself, the only reason I would ever part with my Tidals would to be move up in the product line. Nonetheless, given the size of my room I am very happy with the PD's. Sounds like yours will be the first G2's to arrive in North America.

U guys.....Still missing the point. All of this equipment shifting (buying). Get a pair of speakers U like.......then electronics, then sources (turntables, cdp), then experiment with cables, cords, wires, and room acoustical treatments, then tweaks. Not the other way around, where U'r constantly changing components. Just my opinion.....

I am now the proud owner of Tidal's new Contriva G2. The speakers arrived several weeks ago and now have enough hours to provide a few reflections. As noted earlier, I have enjoyed my Piano Diaceras for the past several years and the G2s are just what you might expect from Tidal, the same superb sound plus more, with extended LF from the 9 inch woofers. For the first time in my audio career, I can sit back and just listen to the music.

I own the Piano Diaceras (latest version with black BCC drivers). Besides the superior bass extension, how are they different? Congratulations on a superb product! No place to go from a Contriva IMO!

Linkster,

The Contriva G2 further improves on the wonderful Piano Diaceras that we both love. The imaging is better, the sound is fuller and more coherent and the response is more extended with the two 9 inch woofers and new tweeter.
