I’ve been thinking of doing this to this thread for a while and I’ve decided I’m just going to do it. Since no one else has made the comparison and the comparison obviously needs to be made, I’m going to be the brave one and come out with it.
Anyone who who has ever wanted to know how the Theiaudio Clarvoyance sounds but doesn’t have, or doesn’t want to spend $700 to find out, just take a look at this graph…
LOOK AT THIS FREAKING GRAPH!!!
To my ears, the Clairvoyance has never been that resolving of a tribrid. The Mele also doesn’t have the coherency and timbre issues that plague a lot of hybrids and tribrids (Clairvoyance included).
I hope all of you can put 2 and 2 together and come up with 4 and those of you wondering if you should pull the trigger or not should run to your computer and throw your 50 bucks at the screen and sit back and enjoy the masterful tuning that is Mele. @hawaiibadboy has given you all a gift.
You do not have to spend tons of money to get TOTL sound. Mele is the proof you have been waiting for.
Anyone who owns Mele and wants to hear if the Clairvoyance is $650 better sounding will be horribly, disappointed. Not to mention Mele destroys the Clairvoyance in comfort.
Got it? Nuff said.
