New reference loudspeaker from Jamo

[Lazarus 0]

These things look lush - no cabinet/box

 

At first glance they might seem at bit on the steep side but it probably works out at around £140 (ish).

EDIT: that link seems to be a list, but it's the GRADO RS1 for £642

 

The difference is canny amazing like. You can pick out every instrument and locate every distinct instrument in a different position in the soundstage.

 

It puts me off, hearing the sound of every piano key being pressed (not the note, the thud of the thumb on key) or every movement of fingers over the string.

 

Some of the people on this forum are mad....

You get daft stuff like people with a £500 pair of headphones specifically for listening to Tool, and they must have 300 hours of white noise played through them to optimise the output.
