| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? @Zd542: I agree with you, but that's the situation happen, especially come to so called high end sound, there is no high end sound that can satisfy every customers so to speak, rich for the rich, poor for the poor and most probably you will just n... | |
| Bowers and Wilkerson B&W 802 D3: an impolite Brit? It seem I got a pair of Wharfedale Jade 3, that sound problem exactly what you all have discussed here. Bright, sibilant, difficult gear matching, room and placement adjustment, and very unforgiving in presenting music. Hmm, is this what the high ... | |
| Wharfdale Denton Anniver spks. Excellent or hype? @Sunnyjim: hmm, I'm a bit regret to buy Jade 3 frankly, but I can't conclude that it's a bad speakers, it's sound very very flat, neutral, free of color, transparent, but too much revealing for me, it sound best for most state of the art recording... | |
| Harbeth vs JM Reynaud @Facten: hmm it really depends how much and what type of recording or music you listen to, there are a lot of less than perfect recording tracks, but you still like it in some ways, so you wanna hear how it sound from a speakers, if the speakers d... | |
| Harbeth vs JM Reynaud Ryder, Zd542: I agree with Zd542 about sound coming out from driver, it just not so easy to tame. Hmm, I dun get it, the Denton and Jade 3 is designed by same person. But the Denton sound very forgiving, although cannot say easy to drive, but work... | |
| Wharfdale Denton Anniver spks. Excellent or hype? @Sunnyjim: No hype, the Denton could be the last best value speakers that ever exists, attractive and beautiful craftsmanship, and most important musical sound, the speakers already been designed to enjoy a wide range of music without harshness, i... | |
| Wharfedale Jade 3 aluminium tweeter problem @Mmeysarosh: Thx for the technical details and explanation. I just try to drive it using Marantz PM6005, it seem the high freq smooth a bit, sibilant are gone and not noticeable, but the overall balance still not there, and sound noisy to me, it s... | |
| Harbeth vs JM Reynaud @Ryder: if a speaker sound too analytical and ruthlessly revealing, any solution to tame those extra details using preamp? Or it would be difficult to find such gear and do the matching? I see Harbeth is very forgiving if you just wanna listen to ... | |
| Harbeth vs JM Reynaud hmm it's happening reading debates here, and finally come to the gear matching point, yes recently I face some problem with Wharfedale Jade 3 too, it sound too analytical to me, compare to Denton 80th Anniversary, it's not very forgiving in playin... | |
| Wharfedale Jade 3 aluminium tweeter problem @Timrhu: Thx, that's great suggestion for tweaks, seriously now I realize that it's hard to listen to music without any sort of color or tone tweaks, be it speakers be it headphones, it's nonsense when they mention dead neutral, it will sound very... | |

| Wharfedale Jade 3 aluminium tweeter problem @Roxy54, @Timrhu: Well, I try to be calm, as the dealer did give me some very good offer and advice. I don't mind to look further on Opus 2 M2 if it's sound forgiving as the Denton while give better dynamic than the Denton, I just need a musical s... | |
| Wharfedale Jade 3 aluminium tweeter problem I have to report back again. After some more listening, even with some equalizer tweaks like Equalizer APO, I still can't take the harsh sound of Jade 3, still love the Denton sound. I'm waiting Wharfedale distributor solutions, he claims try to s... | |
