Those era d5s look great. How does it compare with the imagine b?
Let me share the story of my Era D5. I was so delighted with PSB Imagine B that I got intrigue which speaker can match it. I did internet research and came accross this:
http://www.avsforum.com/t/1149796/auditioned-av123-rs250-era-d5-psb-imagine-b
This is how I was introduced to D5 and fortunately we have sukis that sell them. My son and I auditioned and agreed to purchase.
the reviews summary by the author:
Rankings:
Dynamics:
1) era D5
2) PSB Imagine B
3) Rocket RS250 MKII

Music only set up
1) era D5
2) PSB Imagine B
3) Rocket RS250 MKII
My Final Preference:
1) PSB Imagine B
2) era D5
3) Rocket RS250 MKII
Conclusion:
All three speakers proved to be very capable and enjoyable but in the end I find myself drawn most to the PSB’s. The combination of a balanced presentation, clear open mid’s and highs and a massive soundstage that blends into the subs and environment were truly impressive.
My own humble opinion, Imagne B and D5:
hi - both are clear and non-brittle, D5 more transparent, Imagine B more forgiving on bright recordings
mid - both are round and full body
low - both have ample bass to rock but not overpowering, would mistake both as floorstanders
tonal balance - both have good balance and no dominating frequency
to compare them with "eat all you can" in terms of satisfaction:
D5 - eat all you can for lunch
Imagine B - eat all you can for dinner
Hope this helps.

Post by: luis on Oct 29, 2013 at 11:20 AM
congrats sir s new set of speakers,ganda rin nyan malamang tumunog :)
yung xavian after one month of use and yung aurum cantus after two days of use, no complaints on SQ. my criteria for a good speaker are: it can move my feet, ramdam or there is connection emotionally and forgiving on highs or sssssss. pass for both units. you can listen for extended duration without fatigue and would want to listen more.
outside of me, yung xavian multi awarded in europe hifi while yung aurum cantus award winner in australia.
xavian piccola breed is Czeck Italian while AC melody 103 is Chinese Italian.
thanks po.

just curious, are both pairs of towers hooked up at the same time to the same amplifier (via Zone 2?) or do you switch the speaker cables manually?
i have two systems in the same room, sr-audio vacuum tube paired with marantz cd6004 and a cayin h-100 hybrid integrated paired with cayin cd-50t. may pics po sa page 1 bandang baba. what i do sir is mix and match so you are correct po manual tanggal-kabit ng speaker cable as a result i can enjoy 4 different types of SQ... :)

i had the fixed corner tv/video rack demolished and replaced with white wooden shelves. medyo matagal kasi wala palang parquet tiles yung ilalim, nagdagdag pa and nag sanding (super dusty). also, got a NAD 375 as part of this year's journey.
clean-up and return to original placement took me 5 days, paunti-unti pag gabi coming from the office. all the gears and wires were individually wiped clean and assembled again. everything was completed last night and i took some pictures today.

paminsan-minsan lang sir. ;)
congrats sir! what's your impression on the NAD?
I listened some cuts from familiar CDs: Voices IV, Bob Marley and True Faith yesterday. The combination: Xavian Piccola + NAD 375 + Cayin CD50T: warm, full-bodied, round, room-filling, non-fatiguing and polite. Good enough to make me sing some few lines, nadala ako, di ko na napigilan. ;D
Congrats! When's your next Davao trip?
will PM or text you sir Jen when there is a definite trip, looking forward. ;)

Nice and clean set up you got there brader Luis. Congrats on your NAD 375bee addition. It's a very powerful beast.Musta na bai? I was listening to some familiar CDs last night: Diana Krall, Fervent 99 (New Wave Love Songs) and Bob Marley. The Piccola paired with NAD 375 sounded clear and more alive. The sound stage was wide and full but not fatiguing. I ended up looking forward to the next listening session. :)

Mao ra guihapon brader walay nadugang sa akong gears. I met Edcel in Robinsons cinema here in Butuan with Tipay and their kids. We have a short chit chat about gears and I also mentioned you to him.
NAD 375bee amplifier is a beast that makes power-hungry speakers sings at its best. I am glad that your Piccolo speakers is in synergy with the NAD amplifier. Wide soundstage, full-bodied and non-fatiguing is what I always read from reviews of NAD375bee amplifier paired with any decent speakers. I wish I have Diana Krall and Bob Marley cd's so I can also test it with my Imagine B.
For your next listening session, it is recommended to add a bottle of beer hehehe. Cheers brader Luis.

mentally debating between cd5005 vs cayin cd11t for ac melody 103 (neutral with well defined highs being ribbon tweeter).

Hi Luis, I'm drooling with your gears....nice setup bro. You have plenty CDs to keep you busy. :D
Thanks Paul. :)
Congrats bro. ;D You've gotten a Cayin 265Ai na din pala. How's is it compared to other SS amps?
Yes sir Obet, I cannot resist the specs, build quality and rave reviews.
Cayin 265ai and Hegel h80 - cayin neutral warmish while hegel is neutral; for sensitive ears they noticed which I did not that musical instruments are more clear with hegel; power wise hegel struggles while cayin has plenty of headroom; i am very satisfied with both.
Nad 375 - warm among the three but very muscial, good match for neutral speakers like epos epic 2.
All three have big sound stage, singer and instrument locations are well defined and separated. You cannot go wrong with three, only decision points are sound preference and speaker matching.
For optimized sound quality here are my pairings:
Hegel h80 and xavian piccola gives full warm detailed sound since hegel being neutral and piccola being warm.
Cayin and AC Melody 103 delivers well defined neutral warmish sound with good highs since melody has ribbon tweeter.
Nad 375 and epos epic 2 delivers full bodied sound with great details since amp is warm and epic 2 being neutral.
This is just me, i do not posses golden ears nor am I a critical listener.
I hope this helps.
:)

Also how does the Altea compare to the Piccola? Alam ko lang the Piccola is higher end and uses Scan-speak ring radiator and mid-bass driver, but never heard either.

Sir luis may Xavian distributor/showroom ba locally?
Also how does the Altea compare to the Piccola? Alam ko lang the Piccola is higher end and uses Scan-speak ring radiator and mid-bass driver, but never heard either.
Xavian is distributed by Audio Amplified in Libis Quezon City. You may set an appointment or you may drop by, the people there are very accommodating and very helpful. Dami ko ng nakuha sa kanila.
Altea - very clear highs and details with sufficient low, very good imaging. sound characteristic is transparent and enchanting. uses SEAS twitter (i think) and SEAS driver. this unit is mid-price
Piccola - very good tonal balance high, mid and low. sound characteristic is meaty and warm for me. this unit is more than twice the price of Altea.
Xavian or both units delivers clean sound.

I got a Dali Zensor 3, wanted to try a new sound and this bookshelf has many rave reviews from editors and users.
My impression is consistent with the reviews in the internet.
On a personal note, their behavior is reminds me of Epos Epic 2: well balanced, neutral and transparent, crispy high and with ample lows.
Combi of modern (piano finish of front baffle) vintage (light walnut body) look, sexy and sophisticated, beautiful to the eyes.

very clean set up..binabate kita sir.
thank you mga sirs, mga bros.
I applied armor all on the wooden cabinet, wiped until dry. This resulted to wet look, smoother finish (mas makinis himasin) and also protection from elements. I am happy with the experiment. ;D

last March, after I had a chance to audition, I replaced all OEM power cord with Furutech DIY. the overall result on my system is like they have been fed with vitamins. highs are softer and still extended, mids are more full bodied and lows are more evident. the change in power cord was really evident, this is a clear observation using the Xavian Altea speaker.
(http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i457/luismorizono/P1570878_zpscsmgnyly.jpg)
due a visit in Audio Amplified for a replacement of speaker terminal on my tube amp, i had a chance to audition this beautiful Castle Richmond 7i with super high-end line magnetic tube amp. myself and my 16 year old son immediately got hooked. we tried my tube amp after the repair if it can handle this speaker and the answer is kayang-kaya. we had a huddle before making any decision, he was more into it than myself. within a week, brought home this baby for its beautiful English sound and to show support to my son.

here are my impressions after three weeks of listening with Cayin 265ai SS and Bada SR-HEAC07 tube amp.
musical and lively.
open and expansive sound stage.
great 3D sound, instrument separation and placement is very precise.
very good balance high, mid and low.
fast, agile but not fatiguing, warmish but engaging.
high is crisp.
mid is warm.
low is ample but not overbearing, round sounding, not muddled.
revealing, brightly recorded music will sound bright and forward sounding.
it sounded fast and tight with the SS amp and malambing and meatier with the tube amp. detailed in both cases.
beautiful cabinet finish, very pleasant to the eyes.
(http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i457/luismorizono/P1570888_zpsrl8ibzpo.jpg)
still made in England.

2) tube amp + morrow IC + marantz cd5005 + Cal's SpkWire

overall effect I would say are clearer sound and better imaging brought about by reduced sound reflection.
thanks for looking.

was planning to have lunch at emer's but was closed, looking forward pa naman for either chopsuey rice or beef broccoli rice.
i asked my suki san masarap and he pointed me to Aida's Inasal (beside emer's).
i ordered crispy spareribs with mushrooms, my son had adobong pata and my daughter had chicken inasal.
while waiting for our orders, my eyes gazed around the resto and noticed there were a lot of artworks around: painting, metal figures and others.
to my surprise, in one corner there was an audio set-up with a lot of cds lying around. i asked my son to take a picture: pioneer cdp, HK integrated, Fisher integrated and a big epos BS.

matched with vintage JBL bigbookshelf seating on the floor. sabi ng taga bantay, "ginagamit ng may-ari pagbumibisita dito." was planning to make an offer pa naman.
last weekend, the family was in Bataan, "Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar". I made another discovery.
in the convention hall of "Hotel De Oriente"

my son is 5'8" tall.
other items (for restoration) found in the different houses from different locations in Luzon that were transferred to the resort as part of the collection.
the concept of the resort is the owner buys houses owned by historical personalities, disassembles them and build them up from ground up. yung may ari kasi, eh may-ari din ng San Jose Builders hence the passion for houses.
