$0.00 Summary:
I owned B&W CDM 7. Overall nice speaker but with time I couldn't stand the metalic shimmer in the treble. In my search for a new speakers I auditioned Triangle - didn't like them, Sonus Faber Grand Piano Home - not bad, Vienna Acoustics Beethoven very nice speaker, vey musical, Dynaudio Audience and Contour - my second favourite, naturally sounding speaker (new Contours were still to come), Jmlab Electra (and a few more). Out of the box bass was a bit boomy and treble aggressive. After the burn in
Electra is a very smooth sounding speaker, musical, not as much forward as my previous boxes, especially in the midrange. Bass, though not very deep is very fast, very tight, gives the speakers authority. This frequency area is as good as midtones. And the passage in the midrange is impecable. Highs are smooth, precise and quite airy. One of the most transparent speakers I've heard. Very impressive. It's resolution enables enjoying the ambience of the recording venue.
Soundstage is good, very wide with good depth and nice layering. Images are 3D but focus could be a little better.
926 benefits from better amplification. With Plinius 9200 integrated amp system is musical and very, very involving. It's so good that I've forgoten about highs, soundstaging, images and all that stuff and started listen to the music. Strengths:
Very fast, detailed, transparent, smooth, coherent and musical (with proper amplification) speakers Weaknesses:
bass could be deeper Similar Products Used:
