I’ll still see if I can track down the Falcons as well.
Is there anything else you suggest? I might have a track on a dealer in toronto that sells Legacies, Sonus Faber and others
Legacy is pretty nice, some solid stuff. I think sonus faber is a bit overpriced tho imo
I just learned Sonus Faber is a subsidiary of McIntosh So I’m not surprised its overpriced lol
Lol yeah, just something to note, they are becoming more of a lifestyle brand for high end audio
Yeah. I heard their new anniversary Preamp and Biamping Tube/Solidstate stereo amp were kind of a rare return to form though.
I did hear it and it was impressive, but I still don’t think it’s the best value, but I can understand people buying it
Do you have access to any other BBCs? Such as Spendor and Rogers?
I actually do have access to spendor
The spendor classic 3/1 might actually work on a desk for you, although if I recall correctly they have a rear port tho so that might not be ideal for a desk against a wall
Do you know anything about the The Usher Audio SD500?
I do not unfortunately
Dang I see photos of them paired with Tube amps sometimes.
I would suggest to audition some Harbeth P3 40th Anniversary, see how you like them and go from there. Harbeth seem to take very well to tubes.
What about the Monitor 20.1?
Those are good and have a more even studio tuning, pretty nice, personally I prefer the p3 but those are solid as well
I’ve never heard them, but those Harbeth bookshelfs look sexy AF.
The bigger harbeths are even better looking imo (at least they look good with my setup). If you ever get a chance to hear a ls3/5a monitor (a good one) do it, they have excellent mid-range
Has anyone here had a chance to listen to the focal chora or kanta bookshelf speakers?
The chora was nice but nothing stood out to me, the kanta was very impressive. Haven’t heard them on a tube tho
The chora is new! Those “slatefiber” drivers look like art pieces
