I think orange is the best color. If the dealer is willing to take off the iTron then yes I can get the orange color, otherwise the light blue one also looks very nice.
Ahhhh… sorry my bad, Englist is not my mother tongue, but yes, I think that was at least 30-40% improvement compared to when it was horizontal. it can be a bit overbearing on the previous setup.
I have tried so many different cable, IMO nothing comes close to Siltech especially the double crown / triple crown level…. Never tried Odin 2 thought, gaining a lot of followers these Odin lately…
Thank
Thanks for the best wishes for my loved ones. My mom passed away in pain on August 30th 2022, that’s why I disappeared from this forum for quite some times.
Berlin and Trio G3 is totally different league, bit off course WVL Berlin is less than half the price and I have to say it sounded...
Big update!!
Spent I don’t know how long in the dealer….I opened the can of worm and tried CH L10 + iTron, still prefer G70+iTron and everyone else in the room (4 other people). They can make more money if I got hooked to CH L10 but they told me their honest opinion that G70 beat the CH L10 (in...
Your explanation makes a lot of senses! I will discuss this with the dealer.
I did love how it sounded with G70+iTron, I thought it was an endgame sound for me until I heard the G70+Ongaku.
PS: you said you’ve seen the dealer’s setup. I assume you live on this side of the world too?
I trust @sbnx experience fully, I am sure what I already heard on iTron wasn’t a true representation of what iTron is capable of, I have no doubt in that and I have stated that repeatedly, but in all fairness even the Ongaku was far from ideal setup as well when I auditioned both. In a perfect...
The difference won’t be that much actually, should be able to swing it both way if I am willing to postpone on the basshorns. Now I am just tip toeing between getting non iTron and keeping my Ongaku, get iTron and still keep my Ongaku or get iTron and let go of my Ongaku + get the basshorns...
Some people just love to hate SET…. I came to the audition with neutral opinion and actually very very ready to pension my Ongaku until I heard it with Trio G3….I wasn’t alone in my opinion, there are three other listeners and the dealer who is big on solid state said so himself.
I am 100% sure...
I am pretty much set on G3 of I were to change speaker. I loved my WVL Berlin but it’s not end game for me while I can see G3 as an endgame for me, don’t wanna consider anything else as I need to be able to say “enough” in this money pit hobby of ours. I live in South East Asia, so don’t have...
The dealer just returned Kondo G1000 to Japan because it keeps on playing radio channel on the tweeter.
I am 100% sure there will be at least 30% further improvements when there are proper wires on the Ongaku setup. Like I said, even with really crazy salad of whatever wire available it still...
It’s pretty weird, I actually think that the high could be a bit more aggressive on the Ongaku but we were using totally inappropriate cable for the speaker and interconnect, running very long rca, we even had to use cheap Neutrik Y splitter, due to the awkward position none of the proper...
We are still in very preliminary talks. I know he’s got an old Meridian subwoofer I can borrow but I need to see the final number first….he might even have to order in a new set if I want to go with non Itron.
Thanks for the best wishes…and yes I think Trio G3 should be on top of the list for anyone looking for high end horns and can afford it, it’s an end game speaker IMO. I wish it can be that simple and apparently it’s not a close call at all.
It was so vastly better I didn’t think that was a mere personal preference…I came to the showroom with an open mind and even a serious intention to trade in my tube gears for ss gears in favor of simplicity but here I am….
Hahaha, yes I mentioned that for like a million times already but he is...
Me and the dealer have a fantastic relationship. Bought big majority of my gears from him, I know he will do something for me….Additional bass unit for G3 is a definite must. I know I can’t afford the basshorns right now so I will just have to think about what I can do right now to at least make...
tried making iPhone video but it came out horrible, the floor is too hard and the room is too lively the video ended up incomprehensible. I ended up spending almost 5 hours there and off course one will always comes back more confused than before after a long audition.
As for comparison, there...
I have an awesome dealer…. He insisted that he wanted to setup my current WVL Berlin beside the Trio G3 first, so the comparison couldn’t be anymore direct…
Hi @sbnx
Please forgive me for not updating my profile for way too long thus causing confusion and wasting your time. The Jadis and Ktema are long long gone since I can’t remember when. Now I am running Taiko for digital, Kuzma XL DC for analog, Pilium Divine for DAC, Kondo G70 pre and Kondo...
I could trade in my Kondo Ongaku for the Itron and my WVL Berlin for the G3 speakers, but that will mean I am abandoning tube amplification on my fully maxed Ongaku, I don’t know what I am going to do with my tubes collection….There is no way I can comfortably afford the G3 without me making...
