speakers

I've read tons of reviews here (and elsewhere) and am struggling to choose an active powered near field monitor for casual (and sometimes critical-ish) listening. I have really good ears and am treble sensitive so anything with a ribbon tweeter is probably out. The speakers will go on a fairly...

Includes GLM User Kit and 9310AM-US Volume Control. White finish, new condition. Price is $10,000. For everything, it would cost over $11K with tax, so you'd be getting a good discount for essentially brand new. Local only (Sacramento Region or SF Bay Area - if willing to drive). Each...

Hi everyone, I'm looking for bookshelves speakers for my Audiolab 6000A. I'm a beginner and knows nothing about hifi. I had the opportunity to listen to several speakers as Dynaudio emit 10 (which I liked), the Bower and wilkins 707 (not bad but too expensive for my budget) and the Wharfedale...

With my job I travel very often and spend a large amount of my time sitting in front of a laptop in airbnbs and hotel rooms. I'm looking for the best STEREO audiophile speakers out there that I can throw in a carry on bag and travel with. These will get used sitting in front of a laptop 99% of...

Hi all, I am looking at purchasing a new stereo hi-fi system to replace my existing standmount speakers & integrated amp. The existing system is too small for the room size (10.5m x 4.1m). I bought it for our previous house, so want to move that system to a smaller room that's better sized for...

Looking for a studio monitor for less than 600$ per pair. The room is about 11 square meters and I can't do barely any acoustic treatment. Right now I'm using JBL 305P MKII and the bass is overwhelming even if I reduce it as much as I can. I saw some reviews and these are on my wish list for...

Hi, I recently purchased the Kanto YU4P's due to price and mainly the dimensions due to limited space in my setup. I think they sound really good but, i'm looking for a really good pair of speakers in the sub $300 range that have a similar footprint to the YU4P's. Someone suggested PSB Alpha...

I would like to start with a greeting from Israel and say that this is the place I feel most comfortable receiving real advice from, because it is the most professional place for the audio around the internet AFAIK :) As of today, I bought Sennheiser x Drop 6xx headphones and they are on their...

In excellent physical and working condition. Considered the best hifi amp for an entry price. v2 retails for $479. Sounded great with different speakers I tried with. Slim form factor. Price is $220 local cash pickup (zip code: 08540). I prefer local cash pickup and I am willing to travel...

Does anyone have some example measurements as to how typical speaker FR changes with volume? I know that Amir test speakers at 86dB and 96dB, but how does it work at low volume? The reason that I am asking, is a discussion I've seen on which speakers/hifi equipment sounds best at low volume...

Hi everyone, I'm trying to mix my songs in my tiny bedroom. Is mixing with monitor speakers a viable option in this room? Sorry for the bad drawing, but here are the approximate measurements of my room: L: 280cm (110") W: 250cm (98.4") H: 240cm (94"). I typed the measurements into Bob Gold's...

Hi there, I am selling my beloved pair of Dynaudio X18 in Walnut finish. I just switched to active speakers to replace them. They are in very good condition. Some very tiny scratches which are almost invisible thanks to the mat/satin (not glossy) finish of those speakers. One speaker has...

I'm trying to figure out which Kef Uni-Q generations were used in which speaker series based on their announcement dates and further info. Kef Uni-Q website shows a current timeline...but with missing speakers to get the full picture. Sorted by Announcements Dates: Generations 1-7, from...

I see that U-Turn is now in the powered speaker business. They're selling them for $399. As a U-Turn Orbit owner, I'm curious as to how they'll measure. https://uturnaudio.com/pages/speakers

Hello! I have Focal Shape Twins with Burson Composer Dac\Preamp for my desktop setup for music, gaming and movies. So wanted to ask, what would be the logical upgrade for active near field speakers\monitors for the same application. Focal Trio6 BE? Focal Trio11 BE? Or they are better for studio...

Hello. Has anyone measured or tried in reality the "ultra thin" speakers from KEF? For our bedroom with limited space this seems like a good option cosmetically. But sound wise, I do not want it to be in the "soundbar" territory. We love our music and would love to have almost LS50 grade...

Hi, I wonder what speakers would be worth to pair with the D90SE Would the Genelec 8030C Studio Monitors be good? I'd prefer to have my setup with no sub as I live in a flat on a 2nd floor and below me there is a dental clinic room and I don't want to bother anyone (Lulz), I never turn my...

I'm interested to know others' experiences if/when they use Crutchfield's speaker comparison. I spent a half-hour with it this morning, and I was surprised at how useful it was to me. Well, not so useful as how much it lined up with my experiences with three known-to-me speaker models. Of...
