Best speaker that Proac ever made

I was going to mention the EBS, I have not compared them directly to the towers but I would take the EBS in a flash over any speaker they have ever made.

The original Response 2

Ladok, I owned the original Response 2 for about 9 years and it is a great speaker. My change to the Response 2.5 was an improvement to me, especially in bass response.

I have owned the Response 1s, 1sc, 2, 2s, 1.5 and 2.5 and have heard most of the Studios and Tablettes, as well as Response 3 and 3.5 and d38(was importer in country for close to 10 years). All have the typical Proac sound and in right room and with right amplification, they can sing. I prefer the original Response 2, will take the 1sc to island as my last speaker, but don’t care much for the 2.5’s(big bass and veiled mids compared to smaller 2 or 1sc’s, but was probably, after the Tablettes, Proac most successful mdoel).

After several years of really enjoying the Response 2, I also tried the 3 and the 2.5 (and still kept the 2). I think a lot of what me, Jperry, Stefan-air and others observed might have to do with amplification used. The 2 had a very benign impedence that was perfectly suited to the Audio Research amps I had at the time, particularly the old, classic D76A, but those same amps seemed to not match up with the 2.5 and like Stefan-air I kept getting bloated bass. And my amps probably didn't provide the 3 with enough boogie factor.
