Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

The thing lost most often in a larger set of speakers I found is coherence

Yes, and coherence can surprise you with the degree of its importance. Live music has many qualities and no speaker I know of can get them all. So choices come down to priorities -- which qualities matter to you most. I'm fond of all of my speakers, large and small: but coherence has become increasingly important to me, now that I've heard it!

Not all small speakers can do it, by the way. But most of the good ones can delineate space better than their big brothers and cousins, which also turns out to matter to some of us.

P.S. The Thiel 2 2's had a lot of coherence, though they were the least characteristically Thiel-like in the line!
