Gold Member Username: T_bomb25Dayton, Ohio United States Post Number: 1143 Registered: Jun-05 | The Wharfedale Diamond 9.1s their specs are misleading they are increadibly easy to drive,and they are better than a lot of more costly designs,they have a stunning midrange.If you can swing $650 the Epos M5 is the best buy out here in this pricerange,through AV AudioWaves you can get them for for like $560 with free shipping their website is www.audishopper.com/AudioWaves.you can get the 9.1s thru www.audioadvisor.com for $350,but if you call Wharfedale you shold be able to find more dealers and get them a bit cheaper.Another option is our own speaker designer Tim,the site is at www.alegriaaudio.com check out the excellent Lings that myself and a and a few others on this forum gave reviews on them,and also check out the new Emma for $599 it looks to be a step over the Lings and it offers floorstander bass and a ribbon tweeter,and from Epos again you might want to check out the els 3 for $329 a pair and you can get it cheaper from AudioWaves as well so good luck! |
