thank you Matthew
Needing to replace thirty year old speakers.
I have a thirty year old pair of Canton ergo 80 speakers. I
never felt they were that good. My current system includes
a Chronus magnum dark integrated amplifier, a Cambridge
audio can v2 streamer and two Svs 2000 pro subs. The
Chronic dark replaced an Adcom 555-2 amplifier and an
Adcom 565 preamplifier. I always thought the Adcom
equipment sounded harsh in the upper midrange. The
Chronic solved that problem. It is better than the Adcom
equipment in every way. I like speakers that are slightly
warm sounding but still give detail. My budget is around
$5,000, maybe a little more. What speakers would sound
good with my setup? If a recommended speaker allowed
Me to delete the subs, my wife would be happy 😊

+1 @celtic66 They can't even afford to live in their own damn state so they emigrate, but instead of respecting folks who've lived here their whole lives and whose home this is, they start finger-wagging at everyone and telling them which way is up. Just gtf home

@devinplombier we don't want them back though. They are the really annoying kind with the "right" political affiliation. |
The ATCs are really quick and revealing. Some observe forwardness/brightness and blame the transducer. ATCs only reveal what is fed them. Also, attack should be immediate with any ATC speaker. If not, it is because the source/amplification is slow. Found this particularly true with the actives as tube preamps were completely hopeless and slow, smearing the experience. Went through three different high quality tube based preamps with no success. Solid state won the day. ATC SCA 2 Class A smokes the 50As. Best of luck sorting this out. |
