Thanks for the feedback. The color did come out quite nicer than expected.
The room is rather small at about 3.5m X 3.7m. I had purchased the C2s for my living room. That was an odd shaped room and rather large, so bass response was uneven and on the low side. On several songs, I started to miss the lower frequency response I enjoyed with my older B&W's
After talking to my local dealer, he suggested we try a dedicated room. The bass response then became quite prominent, but I was glad to know the C2's could reproduce alot of the lower frequencies. To tame the bass, We employed several bass traps. ( More are on order ).
I did get to listen to the 1,2, and 3s before my purchase. The 2.0s were then demoed in my house, and I was quite happy. I would be really curios to see what the C1.0s do in this room now.
I was only considering the new Wilson Sashas, I demoed them as well, but was really taken by the accuracy of the Raidhos. The Raidhos seemed completely unconstrained, albiet abit on the cooler side when compared to the Sashas. Gaining that warmth back was another struggle, but the ARC took care of it.
Im using all Nordost at the moment. A mixture of Vishnu, Shiva, and Red Dawns.....Im considering upgrading these now too. Also considering the Quantum Q'4s you have. Are you a fan?
These are the newest versions, only 3 months old. I really did not consider much else at the time I bought them.
Are you in NZ by any chance?
