as someone who bought the new UB52’s to replace the original UB5’s, i can attest to the huge improvement in treble with these speakers. also, the UB52’s are similar to the B5/6.2’s in their ability to soundstage all over your room. their soundstage is almost like having multiple speakers in different corners of your room, it’s very spooky!

Good review !~,, thanks ! (bought a pair !) :)

Thanks for the review! With regards to the bass, did you find it tight and or speedy? And with a port in the front did you ever hear it sounding bloated or chuffing at all? I just placed an order for them and hoping I didn’t rush purchasing them. By the way, hilarious story about the port and the cannon😂

Tannoy builds coax speakers, too. Mainly in recording studio monitors, but not only. They're great.

Welcome to the big leagues!

Enjoyed

Have had my eye on these for some time. Hmmm.

what is your speaker recommendation for near field low volume listening in a desktop setup ? thanks

I hope these sound better after break in because they are harsh and hurt my ears at the moment and I don’t play loud music. My amp is a Nad d3045 which plays on the warm side. In fact so far they’re brighter than my RP600m. I’ll give them another week and see if there is an improvement.

Anyone get a little port chuffing with these at high volume on certain bassy tracks? For example, the bass line in left right by pap chanel?

are these better than the emotivas b1+?

Do you think Aiyima A07 can power these well for low volumes? Or would it sound bad?

Nice review , It's pronounced Yamo ( Not Jamo )

Isn't it easier to get good spatial presentation from speakers than headphones ??

I use these on my desk I paid $550 no regrets!

I got these new for €340. Pricing mistake by Amazon, I think. Hoooo wee!

+1 for Cincinnati POPs

These speakers are EXTREMELY bright.
