I think Zsolt Huszti knows a thing or two about speaker design. These have nothing to do with those old Bose speakers, imaging and soundstage are outstanding. The soundstage becomes the whole room, imaging remains solid anywhere you move, like it does in reality. It’s not confined by the boundaries and reflections of two direct speakers. They aren’t perfect, no speaker is, of course there’s things other speakers do better but when it comes to releasing music into the room in the most natural and lifelike way, I’ve not heard anything like them. This design does more to remove room interaction than anything I’ve heard. Don’t judge by appearance

Wrong , omnis are where it’s at , no sweet spot just music filling your entire room.Once you get used to them all directly radiating speakers sound plain wrong.

🙏 thank you, there’s always some little tweaks to be made here and there but I am satisfied!

Cheers Jim, the turntable isn’t new, I’ve got it boxed up currently, it’s the same one in my profile picture. (the video is one I had on my phone from some time ago). I don’t have two systems any more so I need to keep one turntable and move the other one on but not sure which! Is your dog a Norwich Terrier? Great dogs, annoying when he wants to be, but utterly loveable!

@@gustoaudio8711 he actually belongs to my son, we always end up with some of his and my daughter's pets, I think my wife kidnappes them! 😂 He's a Terrier of some sort and looks very like yours and is the same colour.

Acoustic guitar panels on my walls? That’s a bit odd

Cheers, it’s the same cartridge, it is actually an MP500 but I’ve got a 300 stylus on it for now - I think they share the same generator anyway. I’m preserving the 500 stylus for now and the 300 sounds really good anyway, more forgiving on worse condition records but the 500 definitely has the edge on quality vinyl.

What is spinorama?

@@gustoaudio8711 CEA2034 measurements - On Axis, Off axis, Listening window, Directivity index, Predicted in room response. Someone should send these to Amir or Erin.

@@gustoaudio8711 Don't know what YT did with my comment. That is measurements according CEA2034 standard, include on axis, off axis responses, direct and reflected sound power, listening window , predicted in room response and directivity indexes.

Cheers Jim, there was quite a few interested but Spain is a big place and the north is too far for most! Too heavy and fragile to ship, each glass shelf weighs 12kg so that’s nearly 50kg before the solid blocks and fittings are added. It actually got some damage on the way to me originally but luckily because of the way it can be put together the dent is hidden on the rear

@@gustoaudio8711 Although my rack is not as heavy, my Atacama Equinox was delivered on a pallet from England to Scotland, think it cost around £80 if my memory is correct.

Thank you. I have Rega Couple 2 RCA from phono stage to preamp and HiDiamond 4 RCA from preamp to power amp. Speaker cables are Ricable Magnus mk2. I got almost all my cables second hand, not very expensive.

👍🏻 I don’t think you would regret it

Not heard any but I’m aware they were an inspiration in the design of these Heed speakers and the non-direct aspect

LS50 realmente necesitan un subwoofer en una sala más grande. Me mudé de casa con ellos a una habitación más grande, por lo que no eran ideales. Era un piso y pensé que sería un problema añadir uno. Me hubiera gustado probar el pequeño Kef KC62 con ellos pero no estuvo disponible cuando los tenia. Yo también estoy de acuerdo, no soy fanático de los tweeters de metal. Después de LS50 usé Rega RX3, varios de Ophidian y Heed Enigma y mucho los prefiero a todos.

Absolute classic movie!

It does split opinion aesthetically. Form after function and all that. Personally whilst I really like the looks of it (at least when the toilet lid dustcover is removed) I still think the P6 is their most beautiful model, pure understated class and simplicity. P8’s more radical design does benefit its sound quality though

Thank you 🙏

I sometimes wonder if they have the same products, it’s certainly not an observation I’d make about them with the amplifiers I’ve tried. In terms of bringing music to life they have a quite outstanding quality to the midrange that make them sound far more expensive especially on vocals and wind instruments. Very natural and easy on the ear. To be fair they do shine most with a bit of volume in a good sized space, but I wouldn’t ever call them dull. Treble is how I like it from a soft dome, bass is powerful and weighty enough but tight and agile if well controlled. Above all it’s the cohesion they’ve managed to achieve that I appreciate most, that gives them that good sense of rhythm that is in Rega’s DNA

Thanks, they’re really good! From the tiny Minimo’s up, great bass, great clarity and very engaging musically. I’m won over by the combination of soft dome tweeter and aluminium mid-bass units. Especially when it comes to drums and percussion

Classic british compact hifi, I love the half width format!

Same principle I think, Shahinian is another non-direct speaker that I believe inspired Zsolt at Heed when designing these. Thanks for your comment

Grazie ancora

👍🏻 Shipping to 🇮🇹 bargain too!

Qualità e scelta del brano ottimi Registrazione di qualità eleva. Bravo.

Grazie - note taken. If I ever see a pair for €100 I will try to buy them for sure! I see there has been movement of these on HiFi Shark especially in Germany

Grazie amico mio

Grazie! In June I will be visiting Rome for the second time, I love it there. I wonder if the little record store is still there on the Vatican side of the river, can’t remember the name. I brought some nice vinyl home last time
