That $700K would definitely get you a real nice outhouse in this neck of the woods.
Sorry for my lack of input so far; other things have kept me from getting my thoughts down. The short version: the Essence V is a truly musical and accurate speaker and one of the best I’ve heard to-date and in my setup, soundly surpasses the Panorama. On to the details…..First, my setup. Parasound Halo C-2 pre/pro driving a Sherbourn 7/2100A amplifier. Sources consist of a Denon 3910 universal player and LG OTA HD receiver. Essence Vs with an Essence up front, twin Force subs, Emerald On-Walls ...
Again, I really appreciate all the input about the quality of this speaker system. Thanks.I'm guessing that with V's only going down to 75HZ that it is much more crucial (or should I say difficult) to get the SW calibrated properly in order to handle the smooth transition down to the lower frequencies?With the recommended crossover of 80HZ, seems like there would be less room for error in setting up the system.I'm pretty much of an audio newbie, so please bear with me if the above question seems ...
The Hsu will work just fine with the Essence. It is an excellent product, with bass to below 20 Hz. Mike Also tends to honestly "spec" his speakers. If you look at Soundstage Magazine's graphs of a lot of "Flat to 40 Hz speakers", you will see most roll off below about 60 to 80 Hz.I have run the Essence fullrange - They have pretty good bass.
