Hi all ...
first post hope its the right forum...
I am currently replacing my 35 year old Yamaha NS20M monitors powered by a Perroux 100w amp
which have served me well...
.But a midrange driver failing
and subsequently replaced by the only driver in the world that i could
find has now given me monitors with
2 different interpretations of whats happening
in the mid range..so time to replace.
I have auditioned the Neumann kh120...Genelec 8030cp and the Dynaudio LYD48 (and others kali presonus yamaha dont have a big range down here).
Here in australia we do not have a store that will let you take them home and return if not suitable.
so after lots of listening I chose the LYDs..
i know they are 3 way compared to 2 way but the bottom end of the other 2 sounded woofy thats the best way to describe it.
on the other hand the LKYDs sound clear with good sound stage
but i felt myself wanting some more bottom end.
Sorry this is so long
So i am wondering if the LYD48 Owners can tell me what they think of the bottom delivered by their monitors.
my room is 4.5 x 3.5 mts.. I am seated approx 1.2 mtr from apex
with good Acoustic Treatment.
The thing is ive put a deposit on them
but Covid /Omicron has stretched out the delivery time by 6 weeks
and the store has given me the option of pulling out of the deal.
but if i do what will i buy??
i really want to like the LYDS ($3100 au) but but i heard the Neumann KH310 ($5400 au) and they had it all as well as price tag.
PS I dont want to use a sub.
PPS is that really an 8" driver looks more like 6.5/7" to me
Thanks for reading
