Are some sleep and rubbing the kinks out mowing the yard I will add some of my thoughts for the day.
First of all I don't own the word smith powers that allow some to wax poetical about all things audio.
So with some single syllable words let me say
WOOW But let me also state as a Daedalus owner of a pair of Pan speakers I had a feeling of what I was in for. My co-conspirator for the days is the one currently looking for his forever speaker.
As many of you know it is always a delight to just get to spend time with Lou and now ad Niko (he pronounced it Woof) the new shop doc and best friend.
We spent about five hours in the "Magic Kingdom"with a guided tour of the building process and stuffing of the goodies.
We did get to see and talk crossovers and I DID NOT TAKE ANY PICTURES in fear of loosing my life.
We audition the Apollo, Poseidon and Muse. We used the Muse as we had both heard my Pans and here are it's BIG brothers.
With my Limited vocabulary here are some short thoughts.
Apollo: Love the magic of the new 10 inch woofer. While I would never call it a point source it felt focused and yet wider.
Poseidon: I really likes the way it produced a large and seemingly taller sound stage. It does have the offset tweeter but it also felt very natural.
I must point out that we had them next to each other for quick swapping of cables for the A/B testing so both speakers were affected.
What a great day, Left the house at 3:30 am and got home at 10:15 p.m. and willing to do it again.
Here are some Pics.
