Sony APM-22ES 4 out of 5

"Second second that"
Sony APM-22ES Bought on a whim for 300 euros this year and the old review about "electrostatic tweeters". I have a pair of Quad ESL-988 and like the non-hifi treble. Replaced the xover caps with better ones. Lots of good bass down to about 30 Hz in my room and smooth treble, slightly boomy bass but tamed it with DSP. They're kind on the ears and non-fatiguing. If you're into APMs, check out soundoddity.com. (Full Review)

JPW Mini Monitor 5 out of 5

"JPW Gold Monitor speakers"
JPW Mini Monitor I have both the Mini and Gold monitors. Sweet, warm and open sounding speakers great for small rooms. Bass notes are tuneful not bloated and enough weight, more than you can ask from the size of the drivers and cabinets really. I've used them with various amps, Pioneer A400, MF A1 and Jadis DA30 amps. They sounded best with the Jadis to my ears, pure class A tube sound. Of the two the Golds sound smoother at the top end. But the Jadis is pe... (Full Review)

"Kef Q500"
KEF Q500 Very clean sounding pair of speakers. I bought these used a year ago, to use as my music speakers in a setup which includes 2 Talk Electronics Tornado 3 monoblocks, running off a Marantz SR8002 AV amp as the pre-amp, with my surround speakers going through that (Ruark Prologue Ones, and Dialogue One as c speaker), I wasn't sure how good they would sound in comparison, but in music especially, they are very very good. The top end is so crisp and n... (Full Review)

Mordaunt Short MS 3.10 The good performance of this monitor speakers, can put to shame new speakers in a same price. Small room like 11m2 are perfect. (Full Review)

Wharfedale Diamond 9.5 4 out of 5
11 June 2024
By: C Charles
"Great at the price, especially nowadays."
Wharfedale Diamond 9.5 Solid construction, but vinyl finish options rather than real wood. Curved sides reduce standing waves. Floor spikes minimise vibrations. Expect non-fatiguing highs, amiable mid-range especially if paired with a Sony STR-DN1080 or similar. Frequency range isn't low enough to replace a subwoofer, yet they do give enjoyable laid back bass - which kicks harder closer to the wall than the advised 30+cm if eq'd to minimise bass muddiness. A clas... (Full Review)

Wharfedale CRS3 4 out of 5

"exceptional stereo image"
Wharfedale CRS3 I bought these for a small bedroom and mounted them on wall brackets with 150mm space behind. The stereo image is impressive. Plenty of everything. Having picked them up for a song I have been rewarded with a gift. Much more expensive and more recent speakers don't separate the double bass from the piano, guitar, sax and drums any better than these Wharfedales therefore I won't be parting with them.

JVC A-S5 Well worth checking 'usual used sites' online. A super sweet-sounding amplifier. It has nice clarity and is easy to listen to all day. (Full Review)

Sansui SP-X9700 5 out of 5

"sansui spx 9700"
Sansui SP-X9700 ce sont des enceintes très de bonne qualité sonore et très puissantes, elles de la clarté de l'aigue et le médium sans être criardes, basse très forte et ne nécessitent pas d'un ampli très puissant pour faire sortir sa gueule car elles sont très sensibles, donc très facile à pousser. je les conseille aux audiophiles car de trouver de telle enceinte en bon état n'est pas facile!!!

Translation: These speakers are very good sound quality and very powerful, they have clarity of the treble and midrange without being shrill, very strong bass and do not require a very powerful amp to make its sound come out because they are very sensitive, therefore very easy to drive. I recommend them to audiophiles because finding such a speaker in good condition is not easy!!! (Full Review)
