Nelson's Comments:
General Comments:
"My current system is amazing when it comes to vocals, acoustic jazz, brass instruments. I could listen for hours without listening fatigue. However, my 60-watt tube amp does not have enough juice to bring these speakers to optimum even though the sensitivity is 90.5 db and does not go below 4 ohms.
It does not reach deep bass
because of my limited space since it is rated down to 16 Hz (A total of
four 10" midrange/woofer). Maybe, when I am blessed enough to have a
larger listening room then I know how magnificent these speakers will
sound. But in the meantime, I am just happy to flop down into the sweet
spot at the end of the day and let the music carries me where
Future Changes:
If there is one thing I would
upgrade would be my amplifier. I would like to have a Solid State that
has at least 300 watts behind them as per recommendation by Professional
Reviewers who owned the Talon Khorus as their reference tool.
Evaluation CDs:
* Stanley Clarke: I'm home
Africa
(These Titles will be
evaluated individually and perhaps, they may make it onto the CD
Recommendation section !)
