Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers

@dgarretson - what did you find better about the Spatial Speakers

Thanks

@mijostyn - your statement about very low bass - are you thinking about "LFE style" low bass (below 20 Hz) or the bass produced by stringed instruments e.g. low A on a concert piano is around 27 Hz.

Thanks

Thanks for everybody’s input - there are certainly a few options to think about and investigate

You need to know what your goal is. Otherwise you are just going down the rabbit hole.

Agreed - as I said - I had a friend who tried OB designs and he spent a lot of time (down various rabbit holes) pursuing options.

My goal - to find a speaker that offers the most lifelike performance.

However, I’m not into DIY when it comes to speakers and as such I would prefer assembled units.

But I do need to listen to OB models again, to confirm they have something more than what my current speakers offer.

Previous OB models I had listened too lacked bass, but excelled in high/mid range and imaging. Several Models mentioned here sound as though they might fit my requirements from the reviews I have read..

Whilst my listening space is now much larger than before, size is still a significant consideration.

Again - many thanks for all the input - much appreciated - Steve

@mijostyn - thanks very much for al the info, definitely something to take into consideration.

You mention "Average Room" - what size are you thinking of?

My room is 17ft wide x 42 ft long with an 8 ft ceiling - broadloom covers the floor.

Speaker placement is currently 8 ft from the wall behind the speaker
- i.e. from the wall to the front of the speaker is 8 ft
- this is the upper limit due to furniture
- listening position 8 ft from the front of the speaker

I realize every room has it’s own challenges, but any assistance would be appreciated.

Cheers

@ozzy62 - thanks for the feedback, seems you have no issues with the amount of bass.

I took a look at the photo on your system page - nice

But I have a few questions...
- how wide is your room.?
- did it take a lot of time to find their ideal position?
- is it better to have more space behind them - I have about 8 ft available
- have you tried them further away from the wall behind them?
- the two large round "Towers" behind the speakers - what do they do?

I know OB designs can be difficult to "master" so any info would be greatly appreciated

It seems you are very happy with the Spatial products you own - I will look into them further.

Many Thanks
