Andy2, it's a formal review. Go to the following pages. It even got the Blue Moon Award.
Gallo Acoustics Reference III vs. Hyperion HPS-938
Has anyone had a chance to compare these two? A friend of mine is looking at new floorstanders and these are my recommendations because they seem to be comparable in the following areas:
-New technology that works
-Reasonable prices: Gallo's are $3,600 with BAM, Hyperion's are $4,000
-Relatively full range, especially the Gallo's with BAM producing low 22Hz-25Hz
-Relatively compact in size
-Relatively easy to drive
-Good to great workmanship
In the case of the Gallo's, there will be a matching center released in 2005 in case my friend decides to go 3.0 to 5.1 Multi-Channel in the future.
What are your thoughts? Thanks.

Kkm, I read it differently. Srajan used to own Triangles. They are known to be slightly forward in their presentation. He now owns Avantguarde and Gallo which, according to some of his descriptions, have a more assertive character. He found the Hyperions a little too polite. This is how I interpreted his reviews. |
I got my own answer in the recent Review of the Hyperion HPS-938 on 6moons.com. Srajan went to compare the HPS-938's to the Ref3's (and inderectly to the Traingle XS and Avantgarde) in a very telling way. |
