hai friends
Today i had a chance to compare side by side of two speaker set ups
1. Marantz PM 8003 + Quad 11L classic speakers
2. Bose 2.1 PC speaker set up
Comparison results
1.What i & my friends found that the marantz combo has a bit more tonal clarity where as bose provides a gcomparable tonal clarity along with instruments sounds a bit more clear compared to marantz set up...but the bose looses its clarity when its played very louder where as marantz set up maintains its sq even at louder volume .
2.For volumes at reasonable ranges or a bit high..then marantz n bose are playing at alomst same clarity...where as bose has one advantage of doing it 5.1 virtually for movies...in a rectangular room we heard this very distinctly..i forgot to mention i run marantz set up via most acclaimed Asus Xonar Essence ST card with front output of 124dB SNR..where as bose set up takes usb input
3.When i compared the bass of these two set ups...bose set up looses at very high volumes...bass dont increase where as it becomes louder with distortion where as my current set up of Marantz has no sub...so in built bass was not so rich but no distortion atleast.
4. Coming to DAC section...bose takes usb input and has inbuilt DAC section...where as marantz set up needs only analog input...no DAC inside..so needs a high quality CDP or Sound card for its musicality.
5.atlast prices of these two set up we had...marantz combo comes at 66k where as bose at 22.5k almost at 1/3rd price of it
so i think those who dont have much budget can look for these choice...if any other thing im missing in my comparison please ask me...
