| Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti You could try one of the speakers made by Duke Lejuene, Not sure I spelled the last name correctly. He is the person responsible for the The Swarm subwoofer system among other things. He is, as am I, a big fan of the Atma-sphere OTLs. I think ... | |

| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? Nothing is accomplished by lying to a group of listeners in a double blind. The fact the listeners, presumably, heard differences proves nothing other than the human tendency to believe what others (audio professionals) tell them. I hope no one is... | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? I will add that anyone participating in a DBT typically has a dog in this fight. They either want or dont want to hear a difference.
