Remember the old days when the catalog showed "20-watt speakers", and the next better ones were "40-watt speakers", and the best ones were "60-watt speakers"?
Buying Speakers Based on Specs
Hi,
Is it a good idea to buy a pair of speakers based on specification? Currently I have a pair of Paradigm Prestige 75F and I wish it had a little bit more bass. The frequency response is 44 Hz - 20 kHz.
I am eyeing the Spendor D7 which has a frequency response of 29Hz – 25kHz or the PMC Twenty5.24 with frequency resp. of 27Hz - 25kHz. Based on the specs, these 2 speakers should give me more bass response, right?
I know, I know....audition the speakers in my home. But the problem the dealers in my city does not have in-home trials.
Thoughts?
