If you like proac sound, you likely wont like the cooler and leaner WB sound. Go back to Proac. But the point is that itt would be tricky. D38 is fairly big loudspeaker. But, a warmer, nicer more musical sound than the WB.
Wilson Benesch Discovery VS Proac D38
Howdy all,
I used to run old proac studio 250's with the system. I Took a big jump up $$ wise and went with the Discovery's. After living with the Discoverys for several months I feel I am not loving them as much as I thought I would.
I am considering changing back to Proac maybe 3.8 or D38 or even the D25's I'm not sure. I am hoping I can get some insight here.
I am not so good with the esoteric surpurlatives describing sound but the Proac's seemed more emotional, warmer in the middle. The soundstage of the Discovery's is huge but almost distracting. Don't get me wrong they sound great but I always feel like it just isn't perfect.
I would love to know what you all think and curious to how you would compare the two different types of speakers.
I run:
Audio Research LS25
ARC VT100 MKII
ARC CD2
ARC PH5
J.A. Michell Gyro deck, Benz woodbody
Wilson Benesch Discovery
Tara labs Decade interconnects
Room size is approximately 13x30
It's a crappy room.... hardwood, glass and a vault that runs away from the speaker output from 8 feet to about 14 feet, but, it is what it is until I build my room next year. My new room will be smaller but not tiny 13x10ish. So future thinking is important too.
Thanks everyone
ps did I mention I like ARC gear too :)
