Nikko alpha iii power stereo amplifier norman vs. direct full#
They sound big: the sound is full and complete, and fills your room all around the speakers, they disappears from the stage: a soundstage that’ s really amazing, deep, precise, realistic (ever if your chain is good). The ultra-highs are very extended and sweet, and the rear double silk-dome adds a lot of 3D effect into the music. The other frequencies are all very natural and transparent, with a lot of air between the instruments (if the rest of your chain is good), and all the frequencies are well amalgamated, without any hole or coloration. In every situation the bass is incredibly beautiful: deep, definite, articulate but full and solid like a rock. They are sooooo transparent: as you change the preamp, the source, the power amp, a power cable, as you put on a different CD, the Snell D begin immediately to reveal the difference.īut at the same time they have a precise personality. it’s expensive but here in Italy a bargain). I loved the D25 but they were too expensive for me.įinally I found these Snell type D in perfect condition for 1100 euros (maybe in the U.S. In the following months I tried some different speakers (Sonus Faber Grand Piano, Proac studio 140, Proac D25, Advance Acoustics UM40, Thiel CS1.6, and other speakers by Mission, Tannoy, B&W). So about 1 year ago I decided to substitute them with more transparent speakers, but I had not over 1300 euro to spend (about 1600 USD), so I began to search in the second-hand market. After owning for 7 years B&WCDM7 loudspeakers I became tired of their sound: after changing the other gears of my chain (Preamplifier, signal cables, CDP) the sound did’t become better as I expected: the B&WCDM7 sound good (enough warm and detailed, maybe lacking in bass) but are not very transparent, they don’ t change a lot their sound as you change other pieces of your chain.
