It is common that we expect more bass from our speaker system. I have across many systems in my home and more demo rooms and in audiophile homes too. I had been moved by their quality. High frequencies were superb and realistic. Voices of male and female and all midfrequencies were standing in three layers. I could identify each instruments.To tell more I could count some music instrument beating too. Two speakers got merged. Violin sound from both speakers disappeared the two speakers. But when I come to my home I was disappointed. I tried to found out solution for them. One of my coimbatore audiophile friend insisted me to select good speakers for the room size. At present my living room size is 12x15 acoustically proofed with living furniture itself. zip board and closed A/c room was apt for the hifi.
So I selected My dali mentor2 to my Belcanto pre one and Belcanto 200.2 power amplifier. Ayon cd1s was the source Kimber silver streak with wbt and palldium rca cable were used. Nordost bh speaker cable and kimber 8 tc were used. The speaker was placed on a normal wooden stand. Bass was rich highs and mids were good. But really I missed something. From my coimbatore friend I got a dedicated speaker stand which he was using for B&w 805s for a test. It was 4 leg piece with sand filled in every leg so it was very heavy. Really it took time for me to place the stand according to sweet spot and placing the speaker over it after placing felt beneath it.
After switching on the system wow I started feeling in a demo room. The music was in layers. In mid band I could find and identify many instruments being played. clapping sound also being heard which I heard never before. violin sound was surprising me. Voices of male and female singers were in different layers. Mid bass and flute sounds were played separately. There was huge surprise. But while coming to the bass I find little less that too very very minimal. But the clarity of the bass was there. That was more than enough. I started feeling as if I am in a recording studio.
What I come to say here is What ever may be the system matching is the must. Balanced sound is very must. Over Bass kills midfrequencies much and the quality of the high frequncies. If your audio room is large you can go for high tower with good sensitivity with high power amp but the bass should be up to their limit other wise it would kill over all hifidelity of your system. It is a beautiful lesson from my friend. which I would like to share. Thank u Bass treble
