    Those Apogee Stages have a reality-aspect that is so uncanny I never heard it in any other speaker. (Give them a lot of power though to avoid clipping to protect the ribbons.) I had them for a while and there is nothing that has their particular truthful sound. Also uncanny is the natural vocal reproduction that is startling.

    • @SkyFiAudio
      @SkyFiAudio  2 года назад

      Totally agree, wish there was a way to share the sound quality over RUclips.

    • @puciohenzap891
      @puciohenzap891 2 года назад

      These are also very nice Stages with wooden trim - the Mini Grand system with subs!
      Anyway, I've had many different hi-end speakers, B*W 800 series, Avalons, SF's and now having Apogee Diva and Duetta Sigs. The Diva has the most incredible bass extension it's incredibly detailed, try a well recorded kick drum on big Apogees! Biggest weakness is placement and a very narrow sweetspot which is a shame.

    Hola Fernando
    Me encanta ver tus videos, me recuerdas a un amigo de la infancia que (odiaba 😆) verás, mi amigo era ebanista y fabricaba muebles únicos para poner estéreos de auto en casa como consolas de los 60’s 70’s, estudiaba para ser radiotécnico siempre tenia equipo nuevo y mejor del que yo podía adquirir, me inspiraba a ser mejor. Tu taller está muy bien equipado y organizado y tus videos son impecables.
    Tengo una pregunta en question de una reparación de un amplificador McIntosh MA6900, tiene en vidrio roto. Esto tiene arreglo? Saludos desde Arizona.

      I owned a pair of Krell Resolution 1 back in the day. Amazingly built speakers. Very expensive back then. LAT-1000 are rare and are $$$$. They resemble Sonus Faber because I do believe Dan D’Agostino worked for Sonus before starting Krell Industries.

  • @robertsupercalifragilistic7404
    @robertsupercalifragilistic7404 2 года назад

    I personally own a mint 747 DBX with the analog meters, Akai went with the LED meters because of the cost to build was cheaper. So the DBX with analog is the better of the two.
