My hunt continues...
Did a second round of audition with stuff that we watch the most at home.
TV Series (Couple of episodes of Bones)
Movie (Harry Potter 7 - part 1)
Music (Assorted)
The Wharfs (9.6, auditioned at Alliance 4 in Goregaon) felt dull. (It was not in their audition room, so there was quite a bit of disturbance from outside sounds).
Also listened to Wharfedale Vardus. Have ruled out Wharfedale.
Listened to the Dali Ikon 7 (entire set up) & the Lektor 6 (front & center).
Both sound amazing. For music & movies.
The Ikon 7 is WAY out of budget (1.02 lac for only the fronts). Could still stretch for the Ikon 6. The on-wall rear speakers look good.
Wanted to know if any of the experts have a view on these questions:
1) Barring the price difference, what would set apart Ikon 6 from the Lektor 6? There are ribbon tweeters on the Ikon 6 & dome tweeters on Lektor... how does it impact sound?
2) Also, would there be any issue in pairing Dali Ikon/Lektor with the Klipsch SW 450 subwoofer?
(AVR will be Denon 1912)
