Modern speakers vs Vintage speakers

[jespera]

Some of the best Modern speakers I've ever heard period are the new Stage Accompany Master M57 speakers with Bamboo cabinets ! The most realistic sounding speakers I've ever heard Modern or modified Vintage !
Many Musicians use these M57 and M59 speakers now !
A pair of M57's matched with the new Western Electric WE91E 300B Integrated and matching CD Player and an Audio Note Level three DAC is what I want to get one day !

I found this on You Tube sounds amazing even on You Tube wait until you hear them in person !

Ive heard the m57 active dsp’ed version and a passive crossed m59. They werent bad at all.

I preferred the passive m59. No surprise as im an analog man. Tad boomy with the valve amp used though.

Dsp’ing is a bad habit but the pros love it.

Altec A7 is very good for lady vocal.

I enjoy this Korean lady's song called "Passionate love"

She did live show one month ago in Korean program.

Can you guess how young she is?

 

[thomask]

Hehe she is only 70 years young.

Not a speaker per se, but I just swapped the JBL 2402 I was using for the 075 with original diaphragm...I always thought those two would be very close performance wise, boy was I wrong....the JBL 075 is in another league

Still one of the best looking and best sounding speakers ever made.Gale 401a.

Where did the 2402 come from?? A or H ? The two drivers are identical and interchangeable. Sounds like you have an after market diaphragm in the 2402 or a shattered one if it came out of a PA cabinet.

I wondered about the large difference and dissassembled the 2402 and found out that the original diaphragm in the 2402 Alnico was mangled at some point and therefore likely puts out a lot less volume so I'm going to compare the other one, or replace the diaphragm (got two NOS diaphragms)
The drivers are almost identical but not completely identical...

Be very careful when you replace the diaphragm don't let the bullet nose twist/turn as you tighten the rear screw. if it twists in can do the same to your new diaphragms. If it does they are toast.

I recorded this song using EMMlab Dac2 30 minutes ago.

I switch between Chord Dave and Mscaler and EMMlab Dac2 depending on my mood.

Chord give more details while EMMlab Dac2 give more relaxed sound.

I look forward to have chance to hear new top grade Dacs like Wadax, Lampi Horizon, DCS Apex in upcoming Pacific Audiofest

It will be nice to listen to Ideon Absolute over there but I am not sure Ideon will be there or not.

Crazy Rich Asian Audiophile.

He has more than 7 rooms with top modern speakers like Tidal Lasolut, Estelon Extreme, Ares Cerat Aurora horn speakers, Dyneaudio, Focal, JBL and etc.

I counted value of his system which may go above 2 million may be close to 3 million $.

 

[PeterA]

I’d rather have @Tango ’s one system than all of that stuff.

Sorry i think youre confusing “value” with “list price” here. ;-)

All that stuff and no turntable .. ? (I didnt watch it very closely).

Nice house though. Could do with a bit of tidying up.

It seems that he had bought new.


Thus I had summed up listing prices.

Love his use of Aries Cerat on every system!

I will be happy to have one of Tidal Lasolut, Estelon Extreme, Ares Cerat Aurora horn speakers.


But no room to have more than one.

His house appears to be more than 15k sqft although it may not be very expensive in Texas.

I am also looking at Aries Cerat.

My next Dac upgrade could be Aries Cerat.

It would be nice if I can listen to Aries Cerat system in upcoming Pacific Audiofest.

You should get the new Aries Cerat Aperio for your speakers

The DACs are great too!

 

[Lagonda]

Are there any Aries Cerat users that are not also involved in selling the brand ?
