Thank you!

[@sangab62]

For the price Klipsch do and respectable speaker

[@andrewdoan1525]

I love the Rp600m when playing the Blues. Man, the guitar licks are so airy and 3D.

[@joseman9230]

Mis preferidos son los B&W y los Klipsch son emocionantes, divertidos...

[@salvourzi1641]

le Klipsch sono piu' ricche ed emozionanti, bello il basso delle Focal e ammirevole l'equilibrio delle B&W, le Linton sembrano un po' fiacche ma comunque bei diffusori, tra tutti Klipsch.

[@antoniocataldi7774]

Assolutamente Klipsh! Presenza, dettaglio, transienti, emozione pura. Un diffusore fuori dalla mischia, svincolato da costi di mercato e classe di appartenenza, in un mondo che spesso guarda agli stilemi, ma non ascolta. Non per il rock, né per funky o elettronica. Ma per la musica, tutta la musica! Poi le Lington, via via tutte le altre. Un saluto

[@hifiprestige9603]

Grazie del commento. Un saluto anche a lei.

[@maciejsto5539]

9:19 wharfedale sounds the best

[@KuoTungFan]

I like these comparions.

[@giorgiomilanolo5192]

Focal per me il suono più dolce e equilibrato.... Le mie preferite ❤

[@israelescamilla6527]

I hear all of them very similar with an equalizer you can adjust them to your liking without noticing differences between them, the only price and aesthetics. Focal Aria 906 US$2,198.00 Klipsch RP-600M US$399.00 Wharfedale Linton US $1250

[@rdutta5368]

How would you rate Dali speakers in comparison?

[@artjomsmironovs1430]

Aria 906 - 1100 eur Klipsch - 700 eur Wharfedale - 1200 eur

[@jayman3575]

what amp and dac was used for comparing the speakers?

[@gg0297]

The Focal are more balanced and I can definitely hear more detail and separation in the low end. Pretty clean presentation. The Klipsch are lively, for sure, but I enjoy that level of enthusiasm. Bowers & Wilkins, treble heavy, not my cup of tea. The Lintons are the warmest, less detail, kinda veiled, but enjoyable in longer listening sessions. B&Ws, for me, are the weakest.

[@yourtubisfilled7164]

For me the Linton's have much better detail / resolution in hihg ~ mid bass; I can pick out the bass lines much easier. The rest seems more muddy in terms of separating the lower frequencies.

[@wicomms]

You must be copying what others say about B&W. Cos everyone who wants to bash B&W says the exact same thing.

[@gg0297]

​@@wicomms​ I have ears, you know? And 15+ years of experience in music production and 4+ years in A&R. I do not have "golden ears", but I definitely can hear the nuances and differences in sound reproduction.

[@RUfromthe40s]

@@wicomms b&w are good speakers and in the 80´s were a new good speakers but people would avoid them for other better brands but today they do have great sounding models but expensive compared to the 80´s,that were good and more acessible ,there´s one model with a big woofer and a round shaped box with the tweeter on top kind of a pigeont drop, they are incredible good ,today i don´t know how much they would ask for them ,the top end model was a good gambling everyone knows the brand because of those and some bought them and still available in their site

[@Klipsch435]

I don’t care what anyone else says, those klipsch reference premiers, when driven right, sound way better than in videos like this. Even the best microphone will be overwhelmed by the horn efficiency, whereas in a live demo, again if driven right, will just sound accurate, lively, and dynamic. Don’t read the efficiency ratings as an excuse to under power the klipsch. All of the takes that proclaim klipsch as too bright or “scooped out” are coming from individuals who haven’t had the literal pleasure of hearing them powered right. These are all enjoyable in the right room and with the right power.

[@wicomms]

Damn right!!!

[@weiliao7642]

Focal def has the most different sound among them, very noticeably different, very nice spacious sound, it stands out for instrument. Linton is a very warm sound with top end rolled off a bit, instrument is not its strength, but when it comes to vocal, it shines. The b&w and klipsh ones here are just another V shape speaker with treble elevated, that kind of sound js just so generic nowadays and it’s getting boring, not a good one with ear fatigue problem after a few songs

[@manugrandest1683]

You are wrong and too old to like B&W. Treble is important

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

@@manugrandest1683 treble is important? Lmfao! Go play marbles kiddo.

[@jameslast3192]

Yes different being crap. They sounded awful! 😂

[@wolfgangy9075]

I have a question:Those Linto could be drive with my Cayin equipped with driver Psvane and tube Tagashuky as power valves? It has a very stronger transformer as well, but "just" 8watts in pure class A.Thanks

[@giuseppetavoletti9945]

Focal!

[@luigivaccaro1805]

Focal forever....

[@fredapril8384]

Listening on a very neutral headset on a small lamp amp...and the Linton sound the most sophisticated and balanced. Then BW surprised me as wide and not overly bright. I prefer the Chora to the Aria that are too expensive for what they deliver. Klipsh would be my last pic.

[@Aqualung1956]

I feel like the Lintons should be much stronger since they are much larger than the other three. I don't like to crossover from mid to high on the Linton. I'm sure they know what they are doing, it just grabs me wrong

[@alonso_327]

Prefiero las klipsch, un altavoz denostados por muchos audiófilos sin saber muy bien el porqué pero que cuenta con el beneplácito mayoritario del público. Gracias por la comparativa.

[@steliosapergis]

Klipsch no1 . The reason? The sound quality vs price!!!!

[@cremersalex]

B&W and Focal have recessed mid-range. The most balanced flat sounding speaker here is Linton. Yes, perhaps slightly rolled-off on top but I prefer that over the boosted treble of the Klipsch.

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

Not one measurement show the Arias have a recessed midrange.

[@joeltrompiton]

Definitivamente Klipsch

[@gaetanogreco9343]

Tutti bei diffusori. Klipsch complessivamente con suono più robusto e strutturato, B&W equilibrate in particolare sulla voce, Focal per me le meno emozionanti, Wharfedale meno corpose, con bassi in minore evidenza ma forse un po' più aperte. Anche per me Klipsch!

[@Holyfamily71]

Klipsch is best 🏆

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

The Lintons have no airiness and sense of space compared to the Focal. The Focal is a class act at being very revealing while staying warm. The Lintons are veiled and sound boxy in comparison. The Klipsch and B&W are the worst of the lot, with elevated treble and a dip in the mids. Meaurements correlates to everything above.

[@jameslast3192]

I guess we all have different ears, I think the exact opposite!

[@milanmihajlovic8569]

No doubt it's Focal that scores all the points.

[@antoniocataldi7774]

Vorrei solo aggiungere alla mia preferenza decisa per Klipsh, che ritengo comunque molto importante conoscere sorgente e amplificatore utilizzati per la prova. Ancora un saluto

[@ДавидГоцман-м9о]

Klipsch, Klipsch, and Klipsch!!!!💥🤙👍🤙👍

[@szymon533]

🤣

[@RUfromthe40s]

it´s a pitty one couldn´t hear the sound of the speakers through youtube but all are good in diferent ways , don´t know if were chosen by price or power and impedance but they all seemed fine allthough the focal are a bit not so well sounding ,i remenbered the symbol because i used to compare it with other thing , but than i remenber that i never had focal speakers but one day i was unpacking some old hi-fi components and when conecting a JMLabs speakers in the back said focal and the symbol was there, i would buy the wharfedale or the b&w, not that the others are bad but klipsch i like those huge 70´s speakers and Focal don´t have bad sound but nothing surprising and normally they are expensive compared to others

[@IliyaKudryashov]

Wharfedale Linton zer good.

[@hooch1111]

There's no replacement for displacement: Wharf wins, Focal second best with somewhat "boxy" sound.

[@MelinaAspero]

Focal.

[@johnmccartney9418]

Linton sounds more live with a bigger stage to my opinion

[@sc0or]

B&W could easy make and sell good speakers but it sells a V-shape FR curve instead. For millennials. Just a business.

[@Aqualung1956]

Klipsch are way too bright and "shouty" for my taste

[@Patricia-vk5ou]

El mejor klipsch, el peor focal...suenan como si le quitaran la mitad de los agudos

[@Alex.R.O.P]

You can't compare the speakers like this without the same timestamps. i'll have to do some work for you.. "SIGH"

[@hifiprestige9603]

Thank you for your work! Much appreciated!

[@ValNanovsky]

B&W all the way. They simply breathe. Feels like the music is in the room, right in front of you. Klipsch is a far second for me.

[@carlodarrigo4331]

PERBACCO! Ormai Tutte le casse parlano inglese. Bisogna quindi comprare casse che parlano italiano.

[@alvarosainz7804]

Yo escuché unas focal en una tienda especializa y la verdad no me gustaron ..ausencia de bajos ..

[@albeklik8055]

Focal is the king and Triangle the queen and the starling😊

[@jameslast3192]

The French make speakers like they make Olympics. Crap. 💩 apart from focal be twin studio monitors. Those things are incredible!
