Tube Friendly Speakers - Down to 30Hz - $3000?
Thought I'd give this a horse another whack to see if it was indeed dead... It's amazing what one learns the more reads and surfs. Here's a pair of Decware MG944: 94 db/ 4 ohms...28Hz-22Khz. $849/pair! Anyone heard these? |
Did you notice there was no tolerance on that spec? They could be 20 db down at 28Hz. That's the same ploy the mid-fi receiver companies used to use for amplifier specs. "500 watts per channel". Which usually meant 1 channel driven and only at 1Khz, and only for a brief period of time. You don't really think you will replace your VR4s with anything that retails for 850.00, do you? Hopefully you are shopping for a 2nd system. Oz |
Tvad, here's another one I ran across: Oscar Heil Kithara - unusual design and not the prettiest one out there but goes down to 28Hz and can be had below $3k (even one available now on Agon). I heard their smaller bookshelf speaker and that one sounded quite good. Have fun browsing for that new speaker.... Rene |
Yup. Saw that one too...look earlier in the thread. Actually started a thread dedicated to trying to hear these in S. California. Never did hear them. I'd have to travel to Central California to do so. |
