Chane A.1 and A.2.4

[speakerman39]

I added a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 10.1's for some 2.0 listening and I absolutely love these speaker's sound signature. Still keeping my Chane's though but I think these won't be the last Whardedale speakers I ever own. They fit perfectly right on top of my Chane A5' s. Grilles off cause they look that good that way, lol.

I don't own the 10.1's but do the 220's and the Dentons. Absolutely love mine as well. Been thinking about getting a set of the 10.1's as well. However, I also have a set of B&W CM1 S1's so I am a bit crowded as it is. The all new Diamond "11 Series" is out now. Sooner or later I will own a set of the 11.1's. Not in no big hurry though. Glad you like your 10.1's.


Cheers,

Phil

BTW, just curious what you are using to power your 10.1's with? I see that you have the Chane A5's. Never have heard them, but they are very well received. Thanks!

I have an older legacy receiver(Denon 2805 ) with an Outlaw 5000 5 channel external amp attached. I got a great deal on it used.

I see. The 5000 is a great move. Noticed that the sensitivity rating on both the 220's and/or the Dentons is rather low. They both like power. However, I do not listen at insane levels so it really is not that big of a deal to me. Hence, my room is rather small. Most know that I am not a tower guy, but if I were the Chane A5's would certainly be high on my list. Thanks!

I am very interested in the 11.1's myself. However, I will wait a bit before ordering a set. Seriously thinking about ordering the 10.1's before they are all gone. Just wished I had more room.....LOL!!!!

Here is a review of the new 11.1's:

Understand. Similar levels and similar sized room so bookshelves work fine for me but I've always had towers in the past but I'm strongly considering 3 A2.4's as LCR.s instead. Not in a big rush though just an itch I'm thinking of scratching.

Three A2.4's across the front gave me the most cohesive sound that I have ever owned. Nothing was fatiguing or harsh at all. Lots of sizzle on cymbal crashes. The A2.4's could get insanely loud and never break a sweat. Imaging, balance, and detail were all superb. Highly recommend!
