Bluetooth system on steroids! I prefer a wired system, but the way you guys reviewed opened my eyes and perhaps I’ll give these a listen. Perhaps I’ll use the same tracks you guys used and see if I hear what you guys heard.

I always say if possible give it a try to see your experience. You may end up liking the convenience and sound. If you don't stick with what's safe and keep it wired.

disregarding the active part - do you prefer this over the evoke 20?

For me I like the evokes however I’m more for transparency and neutrality. The dalis however have excellent dynamics and well layered soundstage that is addicting. At the end it’s what strengths is more important to you

Hi, Any known issues with these Rubicon 2c electronics? Which sounds better between KEF LS50 Meta, Sonus Faber Sonetto II, Dali Rubicon 2 and Dali Rubicon 2

So far no known issues that I’m aware, however, I only them for a few weeks. I would say between all those speakers it’s a matter of what strengths you like the best. Kel ls50 excellent imaging and coherency. Sonus faber open top end and the dalis layering bass dynamics.

Great content. Any chance you could do any iteration of Ls3/5a ? Harbeth, Rogers, Falcon? I’d like to know your opinion about it. Thanks !

Thank you! I would love 2. I'm I big fan of BBC-inspired monitors especially the LS3/5a. The closest thing I have coming down the pipeline are proacs DB1. I will do my best and see if I can get my hands on either Falcon, Harbeth and even a pair of Spendors would be interesting.

Its interesting how you found the sound to be warm, in my experience i always feel that class D amplifiers tend to be on the cool/bright side and lack the warmth and deep bass your get from class A/B amplifiers .

Your right they usually sound that way due to their linear and start-stop type of sound. You can tell they tuned it in the DSP. In our measurements, the bass is "lifted" with the slow downward slope on the top end. It also looks like they fixed any box colorations creating a perceived smoother sound...With that being said class a/b or a, single-ended will always have a better sense of bass extension and space.

I thought so as well. I have the 2c’s for over a year now and they definitely do not sound like class d. The bass on the 2c’s is really impressive. Maybe a bit too. I use acoustic foam to close the bass ports. It makes the bass more tight and less overwhelming. Normally class d has indeed a harsher/ brighter sound. On the 2c’s the sound of cymbals could have been more crisp. Now and then they tend to dissolve in the overall sound. I don’t know if that’s the roll-off setting, the tweeter or a combination of the two. In the midrange these speakers are absolutely superb. The soundstage compares to B&W Formation Duo’s is very wide and open, especially if you know that you are dealing with bookshelves speakers. So in my opinion the Rubicon 2c’s are true value for money. Absolutely no class d sound and absolutely impressive if it comes to sound and sound stage. They fill your room at ease with music.
