Seeing all this is amazing, i love the look of these. You said you can hear the cabinets, in time and going to hear hi end in person i want to develop that understanding
I've always found AudioNet amps to be unbelievably fast, with excellent bass, and to be incredibly dynamic. I've also found that they get their speed from having a fast attack, a good sustain and a short decay. I've found in direct comparison to say CH Precision they lack the color, textures, dynamic shadings, naturalness, and dimensionality, and the ability for long term engagement of other amplifications. But man, they are lightning fast and dynamic. An interesting Django impression by the guitarist though.
Hmm, interesting. Sounds a bit muddy on my end here, despite you having videos with a nice sound. Live they sounded great, they were a highlight for me - very clear without being annoying - although I need to note that I wasn't able to listen to much, didn't have enough time. :/ Maybe it's the song selection..
audionet is great but a tick on the cooler side of neutral. Those speakers are coloring books. Audionet goes WAAAY Better with YG and turned a Vivid into a much better speaker
As an owner I can tell you there is nothing cool about Audionet. If you experience coolness, look elsewhere in your chain. Unless of course if you consider tube amps to be neutral 😉
Typical sound of devices with Elna Silmic2 capacitors. Soft bass, penetrating mids and modest highs. It seems to me Audionet needs to dilute Silmic with other capacitors. The bass should be faster and the highs should be clearer. Overall, Audionet's amps are great, but the pre-amps fall short.
Audiophile music never gives you more than 2 or 3 instruments playing. How can you tell if they have separation? Put on some YES and get it all! Awakening!
I personally prefer the Peak& Audionet over the Sendati& Boardmann or the Kharma. Jay, Please don’t zoom with your camera, it also increase the sound but with tons of distortion
What do you feel by "hearing the cabinet"? damn I can DIY `active` that for less than 10k, I don't understand that price tag. I like it tho. WMTMW is great for large rooms, maybe helps with nulls.
In Munich most systems are 2-dimensional. And most people still have no idea that over 99,99% of all produced audio products are incomplete and lack one or more aspects that sound possesses. It proves and shows how limited the audio world is in reality, And I work in it for 25 years full-time. Most people do not have any idea how limited most humans are regarding audio. It is often based on their ignorance regarding sound and music. The word 'High-End' is very often misplaced and abused based on its price. True High-End audio means by sound and stage that the system you hear can reveal all aspects that sound possesses. So when one or more aspects of sound are missing it is always a Hi-Fi system. That is why it is important that people what sound is. So you can understand what the true quality in performance is of any audio system.
Perhaps that’s why we are able to immediately know whether we are listening to a live performance or a hifi system. I guess its that elusive live vibe feel that most hifi systems lack. However, i also feel that quality of recordings play a big part. For eg, i was & still never enamoured by most ATC spks i heard. Always felt that they sound flat & opaque. However, i chanced upon an occasion to hear a pair of ATC sounding fabulously transparent, lively & involving. Not only that, the tone of instruments & voices came across extremely convincingly. And the live vibe feel was also there in spades. The source? An open reel tape player. I never heard reproduced sound from a hifi so real, dynamic & utterly open & transparent. The transparency & dynamics was totally effortless, just like what one hears in a live performance.
@@ganck1147, I learned what sound and music are. This made me able to read any individual audio product. Even when I ask any audio manufacturer: "Can you tell me which aspects of sound your products can reveal?". They all have no idea. So this is why it is clear why even a so-called 'High-End' audio show is in fact just a Hi-Fi show with Hi-Fi systems.
I’m trying to understand how you camera gets louder when you zoom in 🧐🤔 I think if they played a familiar track it may have been a different story. As the track being played may just sound how you describe it . Who knows
"I’m trying to understand how you camera gets louder when you zoom in" - the camera is set to do that. And this is just one tiny part of the problem with judging these systems through phone videos.
I don't know. They look fabulous and I'm sure they sound a lot better in person.. But I'm going to go out on a limb and say, save yourself $170k and get a fully upgraded pair of Tekton Moabs and Townshend Podiums.
Tekton are not hi end speakers by any means. I like Tekton, owned several different pairs. They’re very good for the money but that’s it. Cheap off the shelf drivers, cheap cabinets, cheap xovers. You’ll read where people claim they sound better than 30k speakers. Pure marketing. Especially for the professional reviewers. If it wasn’t a positive review, Eric would get sue happy and claim the reviewer is bashing his products. He’s too sue happy and too crazy about his patents. Like with MA Audio’s new speaker. MA would bury Tekton unfortunately. They have that cult following but definitely can’t compete with the big boys.
@@davobmw I haven't heard a lot of super high end systems, but I've heard some pretty good stuff that costs a lot more than what I have. I recently took the cheap crossovers out of my Moabs and installed nice ones. They were good before and certainly not low end by any means, either. Now they are significantly better. I would put them up against more expensive speakers and expect them to do very well.
