And yet, I bought two pieces and replaced my two Teufel Concept E Magnum Power Edition. Why, and why two (?) On that later.
Again Info Caveat: *** application Bluray, DVD, Sky ie about 40% home cinema, TV-program, radio, music, music station - this mixture to 60%.
*** Room size: 3,8m x 4,5 m open to the dining room with another 3 x 3m towards. *** Technology: alludes Marantz 1601 (bye bye Onkyo 608THX and 508) *** tested with Regal or satellite Canton Plus XL, Heco Victa 200, Magnat Supreme and JBL Control One (ie everything LowBudget transducers). *** I had sub's of: Devil 5400 SW, Canton AS 25, Devil E100 JBL Exx.
*** POSITIVE: ***
The Yamaha just sounds good, it hangs any bookshelf speakers surprisingly good, complemented him untenrum and distributed almost unortbar his sound (locatability was the biggest surprise!) - It does not just pointless pressure (unless you zwing him) or distributed vibrations up into the house next door as the oversized 25cm or even 30cm Subs. Skepticism comes here directly to: 25cm membrane to 16cm and 150 watts to 50 watts (RMS) exchange? Is that good? Especially when bass?
Yes, been skeptical, ordered and risked Yes, tested and compared Yes, yes - to be good and buy! Yes, I am with this little shoeboxes perfectly satisfied, happy and listen to him rather than to finally feel the bass only - to hear and feel with is a world of difference - that should be clear to many. I want to take this opportunity just to compare to standing speakers mentioned where a balanced sound willed calculated constructed, and is actually also reproduced: most have 16cm woofer and midrange! Sometimes 2Stück, according to need and taste.
The Yamaha is the ideal complement to all shelves and satellite speakers. By 16cm membrane the vibration behavior responds quickly, thereby now producing sounds at lower volumes and perceived. I like that! Where a vicious Magnum PE began to hum only plays the Yamaha already, fills the room with its frequencies and completes the sound with and the shelf boxes on - not pushy (except you force him :)) clear, crisp presence, exactly, almost unaltered (undiluted = Note or possibly Equalizer Audyssey). It's natural setting and taste !!
The Second Yamaha is a simple sympathy buying one hand - on the other hand, the decision of the 20years since deep-rooted presence of my skepticism regarding membrane surface and the resulting physics.. I could be wrong, of long-term test will reveal ... Both find space directly under the living room couch. Both together are not greater as a vicious Magnum PE. I let both at level 5 (the fifth point of the volume, about 40-50% control setting) run - and I am the Marantz 1601 SW output in Level CLEARLY !!! have reduced. I do not always grasp the sofa to readjust there with changing, diverse and different soundtracks of various optical disks. I'll do that then relaxend on the FB the receiver.
*** NEGATIVE: ***
No FB * 1
No standby * 2
No Trennferquenzregler * 3
*** CONCLUSION: ***
Who buy and audio enjoyment. Do I really need the second in the same room only time will tell.
IMPORTANT: everything sounds already with a good !! The second is currently running though with - but is also on the computer eingeplant'ob he now eats power or is not me this time total matter (see technical info: Consumption Operational 50W max.)
* 1 ... set once - it takes no more theoretically
(Up to 1000W) * 2 ... solved problem with wireless socket
* 3 ... make the most of even the receiver '. Only extremely stupid
if you want to connect to pure stereo amplifier '
Hope still find time for photos of the test track.
