just want to update this thread.
i just met sir rex of watt hi fi kanina sa makati cinema square looking for a separate music setup, muntik ko pa di makita yung shop nasa tabi lang pala ng dunkin donuts,layo pa naman quezon city to makati. meron din pala sila dalawa pang shop sa ground floor Watts Hi Fi din.
i personaly tested yung bagong dating na PSB imagine XB, yun daw pumalit sa PSB image B6. this was connected to NAD 516 cdp and NAD 326 bee integrated amp. my observation: maganda yung highs and mids, malambing at nakakarelax tumunog, parang ayaw ko na nga umuwi. baka mapuyat ako araw araw pag eto lagi ang kasama ko kasi ang sarap ng tunog. same size cya ng PSB image B5 pero mas maganda sound kasi nasa imagine series cya, angat ng isang level. tested also PSB imagine b speakers, mas maganda ang mids pero at the price of 40k plus, bang for the buck ang imagine xb.
then,pinakabitan ko ng subwoofer yung PSB sub series 200, lalong gumanda ang lows. tight and accurate and bass, perfect combo for music setup. plan ko pa sana itry yung Rel T5 pero since gumagabi na, di ko na natry.
ok kausap si sir rex, very accomodating at mabait na tao. para nga kami nasa seminar at cya yung professor, magaling magdiscuss sa mga customers sa shop at kabisado mga audio gears nya. audition and let your ears decide. dito pala puwede gawin yun kasi puwede ka magpalit palit ng gears to try different combinations. nakita ko rin yung synchrony speakers nya worth 100k plus and also tested Martin Logan electrostatic speakers worth 300k pala yun (though i cant afford to buy that one,hehe nacurious lang kung ano ang sound)
in the end, nakabili din naman ako, isang pirasong cd.. hehe. though i'll be back..soon.
