Not sure you can make them sound like Sonus Faber
I don’t know what special about Sonus Faber? They look great.
For me at least sitting closer I think the point source aspect has been a real game changer. I’ve had speakers that were very unforgiving of any posture change.
I’ve been noticing that a lot of directivity plots and they tend to be decent in the horizontal plane. Somewhat forgiving of a slight head turn. However they tend to be very unforgiving of the slightest change of vertical seating position.
This is not just theory in my mind. It’s just the theory which explained to me finally why as much as I loved the focal solo 6 be why they kept taunting me with weird phasey effects every time I changed my ear height relationship with them.
I think (not 100% sure) that tonality can be mostly corrected to taste. Not 100% sure because the issue I always have with my Ones is a suck out between 1Khz and 2Khz. It’s has always been a problem with them and the current recliner chair I use to listen.
I thought initially it was a deep bass issue. It is not. I learned that when I got a pair of huge Rhythmiks in here.
The perceptual issue (thanks to Genelec support for using that exact term) was actually that suck out in the midrange.
What “fixed” it? The Trinnov nova did. I don’t know what kind of voodoo it does but now that suck out is gone and also the bass hits so hard without the Rhythmiks.
It’s so much that I don’t even use the Rhytmiks for a couple of reasons. One is that the bass got too overpowering for me and probably my room also. Especially being on the second floor. Parts of the floor in the corners just shake like crazy. Second reason is that despite my neighbors living in separate houses about 30 feet away they weren’t too happy about it. So I will have to save them for when I can set up on the ground floor and I have more separation from neighbors.
So there are some factors that are difficult to correct.
