I built the CSS Torri as my first real set of stereo speakers. In my opinion, they are amazing. It’s neat to see them doing projects like this. I hope to hear these in person some day!
I love mine. Had 'em a week and love them more than the CSS 2td-x I built. More articulate, clear soundstage. My untreated room deals with them better from the wall on out. Agreed, no sub needed but not muddy. Nuanced. Never harsh, listen for hours. I've NOT owned many speakers but these are the best yet. Bass is true to the recording, "Wow! I didn't realize this track digs this low.... "
I have the CSS 1TDX, with upgraded crossovers, and they are outstanding. Without a doubt, the bass performance, including bass tone and subtly, is beyond expectations. The mids are a bit recessed, mostly with female vocals (but just a bit) whereas male vocals are very strong. The treble is clear and spacious but a bit 'accommodating' of sharper electronics. Overall, an outstanding performer and value. No doubt the Typhon's are a bigger, better presentation of the CSS speaker design approach and character.
SOOO Happy to see these speakers getting some air time. ( pun intended ) - They sounded fantastic at Axpona.. =) Glad you liked them!! Thanks for sharing the journey =)
Yo hurry up and drop that choco sound emei review! Please! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 i wanna pair it with my buchardt S400 mk ii's but im kinda hanging back until i see your review. It's either the choco or the ex m1 but im not sure which yet
These are at the top of my list for new speakers as I want a pair for electronic music and home theatre more than just jazz like a used to. I dont have a lot of room to the back wall though, how do you feel the bass will be with only a couple feet from the wall?
he quickly summarized in the end: the mids are a bit recessed and the highs are not as refined ... This is a pair of $6000 speakers we are talking about here ...
Turning the top speaker upside down prop something underneath the back probably need some blue tack as well stop it from slipping, you should get that treble more balanced and more defined mids let us know how you get on
Somebody who likes the brightness of Focal Speakers will mis something in every other speakers. What is an audiophile speaker? A speaker that let you forget to listen to your hifi-system, but invites you to listen to the music. Most so called audiophile Speakers are not able to do this. Best example for a real audiophile speaker: Wharfedale Linton heritage. You do not need more to enjoy listening to all genres of music and to forget your gears for less than 2000 $…
Seems like you are nice and knowledgeable man but seems like you like everything and not bashing any product that was sent to you. How’s that? One more thing… please, please loose Nordost red down cables! This is worse garbage cable I ever heard. Even blue heaven sounds better….
Btw... I think he's been at this game for decades. He probably knows what he likes, so if Nordost Red had a place in his rotation, they must have done the thing just fine. I've never listened to that specific line but Nordost is notoriously counterfeited in China. You might be surprised how common it is for these inferior knock-offs to end up at a popular internet retailer. Just a hunch, but if the cables you listened to were that bad, maybe that's why.
Go to the Settings at bottom right and reset the resolution to 1440p. RUclips auto-sets it to lower res based on the viewer's network speed as detected.
It makes a lot of sense that a reviewer would be a great person to help design a speaker.

This is a sweet collaboration and I can't wait to give them a listen. I'm hoping they make an AMT/Ribbon version one day.
Nice that you noticed that these sound like Sonos Fabers since one of Jay's all time speaker is a SF Electa Amator

These speakers rock so hard, they aren’t allowed to get indoors🤟💯‼️
The production quality and creative choices are very nice.
Heard them at AXPONA. I think you got this pretty spot on based on what I remember. One of the most fun rooms at the show.
Looking forward to you reviewing speakers especially matched to classical music. Thank you for this offering.
Thanks!!! got it they can't Replace my Polk Signature Reference SDA( they are set and forget ) they had a similar look so It was intriguing

They are named after a you tuber, what do you expect ?
Love em.

There are no issues with quality. 1440p
Seem like a every man’s speaker
I would remove logo
How about Rush and kiss my love of and Nikon
Sir have you listen to the Elysian 2
I fell on the floor with that raggedy line. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm looking for a pair of towers basically for EDM music without a sub.Using the Mark Levinson no383 to power them.
Kii Threes on the BXT stands is EDM heaven. Completely different price point, but it's the aspirational goal for that particular genre imo.
how there bass compared to klipsch rp-8000f ?
Did you break them in before the review?
Why don't u like the speaker man?
Very nice speakers! And a very pregnant cat, huh?😊🤭
20hz just don't believe it, with 7" enven if dual. They should go around 35hz

Last but not least, Harbeth.
Useful tip: If you need more bass just turn a bass knob on your amp clockwise.
American ferst we are forevere evry were any time allways
Huh?
🎯👏👍🙏❤️
6k for a speakers named after a You Tuber ? No thank you.
Focals take forever to break in.

He only makes videos for the products he likes. He should probably make this disclaimer in his intro.

Dude, you've uploaded at 360p, terrible quality!

It's 4K (2160P).
Nice review. Its a drean story. What are the tracks Jay mentioned?
Happens when you're to early yt posts it as it's processing...
@@MichelLinschoten Thank you. I was watching the vid 30 seconds in, so that makes sense. Appreciate the comment 🤟
