I love classical music as piano and operas but i like to leasten to all kind of music, from ac dc
To madeleine peyroux... As said julio iglesias, i m happy with caviar and champan
And also with a piece of bread and glass of wine.... For me it is very nice to listen to nice musicians.
Said that, when i think i need more quality of sound is listening to callas or nices sopranos and feel like
Being in paris opera.

Hola Oliver, welcome to AoS.
Your english is not so bad.......pero mi espanol es mucho merde!
When you say 'waffles' I think you mean loudspeakers - altoparlante?

[Olivermac]

Thanks for replay,
Sisi, efectivamente, i was meaning speakers for my dining room. That could match with yamaha ax 590
It is an apartment so i cant make it very loud as neybours would kill me.....
Hasta pronto amigo
Oliver

they are very good speakers...pretty as well. should fit the bill nicely if u can get them at a good price.

[Olivermac]

Hi, theyre brand new and leave them for 600 pounds ( 700 euros ) . Is that a good deal ?
Have no idea of price in market ????
If the sound is as good as the design then i ll go for them
Kind regards
Oliver

not sure what the d3's cost...think they are possibly old version, but sounds good price...I know they are a quite expensive speaker....they are more common in europe and america than in the UK....

Hello Struth,
At the end I bought Tannoy mercury V4 as i listened to other equipment such as Dali Zensor and and other american ones and not because they were the cheapest ( wich they were ) but because it sound to me the clearest sound for voices
My wife thought they were quiet big for home but when she listened.......
kind regards
Oliver
