Tidal Sunray vs Gryphon Trident

Murataltuev,
I would very much like to hear your thoughts on the Kaiser speakers after you audition them. Tidal are the other speakers I am most interested in. I would like to hear what you think are the strong and weak points of each speaker.

Murataltuev, I would also like to know your thoughts on the Kaiser. Looking at it, I'm not sure how it made your list. It isn't full-range, and rear-facing woofers are a challenge. Anyway, maybe something about it will click...

My list is what is available in Moscow for audition at home.
Do you mean that KK has limited bass range?

Rnt1,

it is interesting that you think the Kawero is not fullrange, that means it lacks base.
I think you have never heard the Kawero nor are you familiar with the design rationale behind. Why do you come to that conclusion?.

Concerning rear firing woofers in the base. Please consider that at the low frequencies even front radiating speaker like your Avalon are omnidirectional. So there is not to much difference is it? There are other reasons why the Kawero has the rear firing units.

Please check also this review:

The Kawero is also available with 3 different woofer sensitivities depending on the clients room acoustic parameters like reverberation time and bass ratio.

Best regards

I listened to the Kawero (and had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Mr. Weber) at RMAF in 2008. The Kawero was in a large room, and I can assure you it is a full range speaker with more than enough bass to energize even a large space. It was, for me, one of the best musical experiences I heard in 2008.
I could have listened to their system all day.

Mr. Weber was one of the nicest and most interesting people I met that year.
