In Reply to: POLL: How many of you use(or would prefer to use) "time-coincident" speakers? posted by genungo on September 4, 2014 at 08:36:45:
and previously used Thiel 1.6s. Both sound great and are exceptional value for the money (especially the Vandies).
But I don't think it's necessary to have time coincident drivers to get great sound. The very best speakers I've heard are: Vandersteen 7, TAD Ref One, and Vivid Giya. One has time coincident drivers, one has a concentric driver for the treble and mid-band (but is not time coincident), and the other has neither technology (but has the drivers connected with positive polarity). All designs have trade-offs and great results can be had using different approaches.
