What speakers would you like to compare?

[fredk]

The favourite speakers thread got me to thinking about what speakers I would like to compare to see how they come out. I know a lot more about whats out there than when I started my search.

Towers:

Salk Songtower w ribbon tweeter. There have been some very strong buzz on these and I am really curious.

Rocket 850. Because they have been compared to the Studio 100 by people who's opinions I respect.

Something from the B&W 800 line

PSB Imagine.

An EMP tower. Again, lots of buzz

An RBH tower. The very few reviews I have read here have been hugely positive.

Studio 100.


So, whats your list?

 

[JerryLove]

Infinity RSIb and RSIIb
Genesis (the whole line basically)
McIntosh XR-19
IDS
B&W 800
Paradigm Signature v3
The latest "never heard of that" I saw on audiogon or ebay.

 

[Davemcc]

A contest between the Salk HT4, Snell Phantom and B&W 800D would be awesome.

 

[MatthewB.]

Paradigm Studios v2 versus Dynaudio bookshelves.

 

[KEW]

Paradigm Studios v2 versus Dynaudio bookshelves.

Do you mean Signature v2? If not, why v2 for the Studio's?
Thanks.

For my own comparo:
Paradigm S1 v3/Rythmik F12 (bookshelf/sub combo)
vs.
Salk SongTowerRT
(I think both of those work out close in price).

 

[AJinFLA]

Danley Sound Labs SH50
Gedlee Summa
Gradient Revolution
Linkwitz Orion
ME Geithain ME320K
TAD Model 1
Yorkville U15

All in my room....where I normally listen to my speakers

 

[SnowmaNick]

Salk Song Tower vs SVS MTS-01 vs PSB Imagine T vs JTR Triple 8 vs era D14's.

I have heard the PSB Imagine B and Imagine T and the era D14, but would love to do a five way shoot out between the above.

 

[Matt34]

Speaker I would like to listen to:

Salk anything....the new HT4 would be a great start!

JTR Triple 8

Mark Seaton's Spark

Usher S-520

Acsend Sierra Ones

RBH 61-SE/R

B&W 805S

A couple subs I would like to feel:

[Quickley17]

I would like to compare the B&W CM7 to:

Polk LSi 15

Salk SongTower

So, whats your list?

Can you add the Mini Stratas to the list? They are said to be better for music than the Rockets but fall short for HT. I use them for both.

Yeah, I keep thinking that when some new speaker comes along.

That's a good idea, especially since he has the 850's on the list already.
