Where can I listen or buy it. It is 6 ohm? Is it easily to push? Ching.

claero

lower grade model not hard to push , but high end model very hard .mk bassment have it .i did plan for this band too ,but i like martin logan more,dyna have very high resale value

randyma

Martin logan is very expense ah.

claero

second hand not very expensive , i m saving money now , front spaeker can find second hand but center speaker have to pay $20000 for new .......

claero

which amp u using now ?

randyma

I am use Yamaha 665 with a second hand maranz mm8003 power ampliers

claero

if u have power amp then i guess u will be fine with dyna , my friend using 100w cary power amp to push his dyna .

hows marantz sounds anyway ?should be good i guess , i have few friends using marantz av amp was quite powerful ,and the pre + power's  price quite good now :lol

randyma

After using power amplier, the performance is improved. But 52 is old model, Most new model of Dynaudio is 4 ohm. I think it is not so easily to push as 6 ohm or even 8 ohm.
Will you have power amplier or add power amplier. I think some 7400 will be come soon. most ching have change emotive power amplier. If I have no power now, I will wait 7400 with low price and high C/P

claero

i m not sure but i heard his 100w was a lot better than fine .....go try first n see if u like the sound .not too much speaker can play both side well.i try to find it long time ago

i m using anthem for now ...which woofer u using ?

randyma

What model of anthem you using, It is good power amplier. I am use Sunfire HR 12

claero

old model mca 3:lol

i never have a chance to hear Sunfire yet. ur set seems not bad ,why u wanna buy speaker ?

randyma

My front speak is Boston book shelf speaker which is older than 17 years old. {:5_99:}I think it is not so good as now new technology speaker. What is your AV set? your MCA 3 push Front and centre speaker?

claero

yes ar ....i m using nht now but always planning to change n i need to wait for my woofer to arrive hk to make my final decision .....2 more month

so u have to buy 3 speaker for front right ?

randyma

No, I plan to buy one pair to replace my old boston. What woofer you bought need to wait 2 more months. Nht is good speaker ah.

claero

martin logan, i don't like the colour that they have in stock right now .thats why ....

i will say nht quite high cp ratio, detail ,strong dynamic . but totally not the same style as martin logan ,martin logan sounds hifi ,thin but detail ,very strong space feel , nht more sounds like mk style .strong punch with thick sound .i play nht since the lowest model , upgrade many times , its kind of boring now thats why i wanna find soemthing in the opposite side .

randyma

So,NHT is much better in Movie la. NHT is also not cheap. If you sell later, please inform me ah.
