Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

"I always hear Ribbons. They sound cool but I can't relax...""

I think I know what you mean.

Some say the same thing about AMT tweeters - too bright and/or shimmery sounding, attracting too much attention to themselves. But you should try to audition the latest Wharfedale Evo4 series speakers if you can. I think you might actually like them. They do use AMT tweeters but (for once) they have been voiced on the mellow, warmish side of neutral. Wharfedale speakers in general seem to be voiced on the warmish side of neutral, IME.

Ribbons can sound great in the right room and the right system, I think.
