I have the Canton Vento 890.DC since today and I'm thrilled! Had been the Vento 870.2, the VA sounds very clean and detailed in the treble range (as is also the added Vento 890.DC not quite). But the Vento 890.DC sounds much more realistic and full, especially in the mid and upper bass range. Since proper live atmosphere comes on. The bass is also top: deep, natural and accurate (because the smaller Vento has just a couple weaknesses). In short: Those looking for a top box at a great price and an excellent price-performance ratio, is the right place for the Vento 890 DC.
