This is the sort of video Peter Tyson should be making. Not full reviews but honest guidance on choices. Excellent.

Thank you! I will always cover new products fully when they release, more to show features than 'review' them. That's why I call them 'Overview & Features' and not reviews. I intend to have a good mixture of new products, comparisons like this one with the odd special video, perhaps talking to manufacturers or interviewing someone relevant. As long as nice people like you are watching I'll keep going and we'll find out what works. - John

Hello John, excellent presentation once again. I’d set my heart on the QA Concept 30 but you’ve put a spanner in the works with the Sonus Faber now. Any input from you would be much appreciated. I have QA 5040s, QA5090, Rel sub in conjunction with the Yammy A4A receiver. All channel stereo usually but also use surround sound. Cheers.

As much as I adore the Sonus Faber I'd recommend sticking to the QA for your front channels if you already have surrounds. If you mix manufacturers I find it sounds odd as movie effects pan across the speakers. - John

Hi John I own the B&W 704s2 and I’m really interested in the Monitor audio gold 200 5G, how would the gold 200’s compare with my B&W’s?
@Peter-Tyson
10 күн бұрын
B&W and Monitor Audio have very different sound signatures. In my experience the B&W are much more analytical and lively at the top end. Monitor Audio are a little warmer but more forceful at the bottom end. It all comes down to personal preference, I would have a listen first if you can. What amplifier / source are you using? - John

I’m currently using a Hegel H190, some times the 704’s can become a little fatiguing with certain types of music and more bass would be nice ,but I’m limited on space in my listening room so I’m not sure if the golds would over load my room with too much bass?
@Peter-Tyson

The bass is just as much dictated by your room shape and size, where the speakers are placed in relation to side walls, the wall behind them and how close to corners they are. To add to the fun, how close you sit to the speakers, to the back wall and to corners has just as much effect. Try it out, move around the room, even moving your head a few inches can drastically change the sound. Speaker placement is just as important as the speakers, if your hifi has a less desirable bass for instance just moving them or you slightly can help, some rooms sound amazing with very little effort, some sound terrible no matter what you do, it's all part of the chase for great sound. Too large a speaker in a small room can overload and sound boomy and tiresome, stand mount speakers can offer faster, more articulate bass at the cost of some depth. A small speaker in a large room can run out of steam quickly and sound weak. Try playing with placement if you can, if it's the overall sound of the speaker you're still not enjoying look at replacing with something different. If the B&W don't overload your room then I doubt the Monitor Audio will either. If the bass is too heavy, move the speakers away from the wall or use the port bungs to tone things down. Play around, try different things and have fun with it. At the end of the day the hifi should be there to let you enjoy your music and make you forget that's it's just sound pressure waves coming from a speaker. Sorry for the long answer, I hope that helped and didn't just make things worse for you! - John

thanks for taking the time to answer my question in great detail, it’s a shame I don’t have access to hear all the different speakers that your able to. The monitor audio gold 200’s 5G are currently on sale at a very tempting price but demoing these are almost impossible due to them being an end of line model, another speaker I’m curious about is the KEF R3 Meta 😅
@Peter-Tyson

Personally I would choose your 704 over the KEF. Lots of people love the KEF UniQ driver sound, I do not, although, of all the KEF speakers I've listened to the R3 are probably my favourite. The Gold 200 5G are a good speaker, and a good deal at the moment. petertyson.co.uk/monitor-audio-gold-5g-200-floor-standing-speakers If you want something really easy to listen to for hours that make voices and instruments sound natural then I highly recommend these..... petertyson.co.uk/sonus-faber-lumina-3-floorstanding-speakers

So John, I ask this question to you personally. How do you think the Beolab 8s compare to any of the speakers on this list? I fully understand that I’m asking you to compare apples to oranges, but I love the design of B&O, but cannot find any genuine reviews of the 8s out there and I’m too far from a B&O dealership.
@Peter-Tyson

Honestly, if I was starting an audio system for myself judging on audio quality alone I would choose the Cyrus setup or something like a Naim Unity Atom and any of these speakers over Beolab 8. Particularly the B&W, Sonus Faber or the DALI. In fact my partner and I chose Cyrus and B&W 705 to use as our main system at home and she works for B&O! Our B&O kit now lives in the bedroom/office/kitchen. - John.

@@Peter-Tyson John, I can’t thank you enough for your honesty in this matter. I may consider some B&Ws and a nice amp instead of the Beolab 8s. And if/when I do decide, I’ll be sure to get what I can from Peter Tyson (so John, if your bosses are reading, you can demonstrate the value this channel brings in helping consumers decide and also generation of sales!)
