Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: You impressions

Single-driver speakers aren't for everyone, that's for sure. I suspect that, for many of those who absolutely love them, a range of delights slightly narrower than usual is enough to fill the void. I'm more than happy with my "augmented single-driver" Laura speakers at present, at least when certain types of recordings are on the table. Interestingly, while "coherence" and "clarity" are definitely two of their prime virtues, "speed" is not one of the first things that comes to mind when I listen to them. They sound warm rather than cool, I'd say. I'm hearing a smooth, slightly distant presentation that seems to be devoid of peaks and troughs. While this type of speaker may not be the best thing for rock music reproduction, it works quite well with other types of music.

Those Tocaros would seem to be among the very special ones based upon most of what I've heard about them...
