Mac: You can check out my comments on Audio Asylum(Speaker Assylum) on the same question posed over there. Basically the Peregrine is approximately 90 to 95 % of the performance of the Khorus at a significantly lower price and in a smaller cabinent. The main difference is upper frequency air and detail. The Khorus is a bit more open and extended. But in many situations and with most music you may not be all that aware of the difference. The Khorus can handle a bit more power and has a bit deeper bass with a touch more dynamics but other than that it is pretty much the same performance. James W.
Talon Khorus vs. Peregrine
I'm very interested in Talon's line of speakers. I've read nothing but good things about the Khorus's ($14k). Unfortunately, even used they're more than I want to spend on speakers. The Peregrine's ($6k) are more realistic for my budget. If any of you have had the chance to audition these two speakers, I'd be very interested in hearing your impressions of how they compare with each other. How much do the Peregrine's give up to the Khorus's? Please be as specific as possible. Also, if you've ever heard electrostatic speakers, I'd be interested in hearing how these speakers compare with electrostats in terms of "quickness". Any info would be appreciated.
