You're out of your mind!!! Magnepans are good for ANY music, precisely because they are timbrally accurate AND very detailed. Coupled with just a single subwoofer off to the side, they are MAGIC!!!!
What a fucking MORON you are! Accuracy, detail, transparency etc. are DESIRABLE traits for ANY genre of music you listen to numbnuts! Metal sounds phenomenal on 'Magnepans'... especially with a fast acting subwoofer in line!
Maybe your mother is a moron because she made you, i've listened to that kind of music on speakers like these and it sounded terrible, but it's audio, everyone has different ears and likes different kind of song.
almost right. good speakers are indeed also better for electronical/pop/dance/house music, but above a certain quality of speakers there's no point in upgrading them for this kind of music because this music doenst have a lot of detail, while only more detailed music (NOT-computer-made-music) like classical/jazz/rock/metal benefit from incredibly high end systems
I just don't understand why people with real high-end systems play such shit music. What's the point? Go to Best Buy and buy some shit equipment for your shit music.
@myfagan In my opinion the best speakers are those that are built with that fantastic Fostex planar transducers.
Fischer Audio Pegasus, Fischer Audio Antheus, SAC Cantabile, Google them. Unfortunately Fostex stoped producing them in 1988. I have a pair of that midrange FS21RP, got them new in 1994. Absolute clean sound, even on high power and a incredible auditory spaciousness. There are similar speakers available from Bohlender&Graebener, Neo 10, Neo 8, Neo 3.
Whats with this music people on youtube uses to demo their speakers. This sounds like the stuff the kids use to show off their cerwin vegas (minus the distorted bass). My god play something decent !
this setup really cost me very little for those who are wondering, everything was of course bought used and on the cheap - im stlil a university student. I have since moved on from this setup completely, gave the 602's and the au517 to my dad, sold the rest. I bought myself a pair of audio nirvana speakers (google) which
run thru the clairtone SET. Its got pretty tough transformers so for a tube amp its suprisingly quick enough even for techno - altho I dont listen to it as much as i use to
WHATS IN A NAME....?..most big brand names are overpriced,over rated bits of rubbish but peoplestill buy it..to keep up with their mates. why if WE demand better the base standard will become better and we wont have to put up with the likes of SONY,APPLE,MICROSOFT,FORD,SHARP,PANASONIC.....DAMN..shall i carry on the list is endless..what happened to true basic engineering ? Brunell had the right idear build i properly build it once then build somthing new ,you still get progress without the shit.
B&W to comon everyone got them i dont think they that gd they dont proudce gd bass i think that tannoy and cerwin vega kill most speakers expect bose !!!!!!!!!
you have no idea what your talking about, tannoy are an old brand their speakers suck!! cerwin vega are to big for most rooms they look ugly and unruly and bose are just plain crap in a box. Give B&W some credit they do overall make the best balanced and nicest sounding speakers on the market and will for many years to come!!!
I love my B&W's but Tannoy is still around making some amazing speakers. Even their vintage stuff is still very good. I would prefer some old Tannoy Monitor Golds to any of the the new 680s line from B&W anyday.
First of all. bose stinks. It's understandible that you think they're the best ,because that's what they want you to think.Tannoy and Cerwin Vega may make some good speakers, but I dint know a ton about them. B&W is an amasing english brand, but the BEST speakers are american, for example: Velodyne,Legacy audio, and Magnapan.
nah americans dont make da best they make da most powerfulist speakers etc cerwin vega jbl bose M&K but uk england make the best midrange and highrange speakers like b&w tannoy kef missions !!!!!!
no cerwin vega and jbl make monster speakers that ave huge bass and go high but b&w and kef have a richer sound cus they do better midrange and highrange
when will people learn EACH TO THEIR OWN if your happy with big bass & no accuracy go with CV,JBL & the like but if you want to listen to music use HI-FI of any brand the idear is to mix and match to get sound YOUR happy with,some of us spend more than others but thats an AUDIOPHILE for you .
its like if i wanted a party i wud use cerwin vegas and jbls cus them badboys give huge sound but if i wanted to listen to music at low levels or 4 chilling out to b&w wud give me richer sound !!
mission ? ive been to missions plant and to be honest i can build better ,cheeper and more accurate @ home. whitch upset Alan from mission a little and i quote "ahh yes but your 1 in 70,000,000. sorry mission.
yer dats true some of uk speakers r build cheap mission have got a few gd models like 773e 734 733 b&w dont like them to many around tannoy awesome kef alright cervin vega phat lol
bose suck and CV are just loud...although i like the way their cls-215's sound....and b&w arent NEARLY as common as anyof those
BOSE spends so much money on advertising that they've spread their horrible audio quality into the homes of millions of americans....tis a shame. i guarantee you have a better chance of finding a shit brand like bose in someones house than finding a pair of B&W
Well done on your insult on my mother. That's really to do with the video and especially about audio. Let's just safely say that you're retarded considering your latter comments.
yer nice but not as nice as my i got pair of mission m331speakers 1 m&K 12inch sub gale 3090 12inch sub sony amp marantanz cd/dvd player whardale eq lol blow urs away with easy check it out !!!!!!!!!
I dont hav any bowers and wilkins lol. I was jst sayin... u know its kinda like comparing toyota to mercedes. n yh ur subs r quality i like the M&K one.
ahhhh, you are blinded my friend...bass is NOT everything....tat may come as a shock to you but it's true...bass is important, but its the midrange and the mid highs that really determine the quality of the speaker
Barf!
