Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Sonus Faber Vs ProAc

The SF Venere S sounded flat with very weak bass and seems like they would work best with Jazz an Classical but not rock. I did not feel the "punchy" sound their rep described. Due to the bottom port design, they are affected by the flooring material they are placed on (not very good with carpeting) and for best bass performance, they must be placed with the base perfectly level to the floor. These would definitely benefit from a sub.

The ProAc Response D30R are very transparent, smooth midrange, none-fatiguing highs with a very deep & well-controlled bass. They worked very well with ALL types of music. Plus their bottom port design, due to the base platform, are a lot easier to place and bass would not be affected by the type of flooring material. These would not require a sub.
