A couple of years ago I auditioned at length the Spendor Classic 100's in a hi-end system. For comparison, afterwards we subbed in a pair of D7's (no D9's in the store, and just before the .2 version came out). There was no real comparison. The Classic 100's sounded significantly better by every metric: fuller, better balanced, etc. etc.. It's my understanding that they also use the same tweeter, so obviously some else significant was going on.
Spendor D9.2 Run In
Just got new Spendor D9.2's, primarily because of the well regarded midrange, and wanted to know how long the run-in will take based on experience. I generally don't play them loud, but when I do they seem to blare. A bit concerning. Also when played at moderate levels the mids sound tuned high. What is the deal? Thanks
