a/d/s has a neutral, balanced character throughout the line. as with AR, is more about frenquency range as you go to larger models. some of the larger models are actually easier to drive also.
Comparing the ads L-710/810 the ads L-1090/1290
I would appreciate any information that compares the sound character of the ads L-710/810 series from the late 1970s to the ads L-1090/1290 series from the mid 1980s.
I have heard that there are some subtle differences in the "sound stage" characteristics between these ads speaker designs.
There is a lot in common in the design between these ads designs. Both use:
> silk-dome tweeter
> silk dome mid-range
> (2) woofers with butyl rubber surrounds
However, there is a difference in cabinet design:
> The L-710/810 series is a bookshelf cabinet design that really need to use speakers stands
> The L-1090/1290 series is a floor standing cabinet design
And, there is a difference in the placement of the tweeter and the mid-range:
> The L-710/810 series use a horizontal placement of the tweeter and the mid-range
> The L-1090/1290 series use a horizontal placement of the tweeter and the mid-range
So what are the differences in the overall sound between these two ads speakers designs? Is one design generally preferred over the other?
Thanks for any insights.
