In Reply to: KEF 105.2s are bright/harsh?? I want smooth speakers! Recommendations?? Anyone heard Rogers LS5/9? Other advice??? posted by Mr Blue Sky on March 27, 2007 at 15:08:48:
driven by an Audio Research D-90 tube power amp and the Audio Research SP-9 hybrid pre amp. IMHO, in my listening room they sounded visceral, smooth, and very organic in the midrange, although a little wooly in the bottom end however the top end was a bit roll off as well. BTW, if you feed them with the right recording it can do a disappearing act just as good as some twice their price point.The only thing that I could think of that could make these speakers to sound harsh is if you underpowered them. These speakers required a lot of current not just wattage to make them sing properly due to their swingy impedances that sometimes dips to around 2 ohms.
Perhaps you should try driving them with better quality electronics.
