If those dai-ichi speakers are more expensive than wharfes, maybe the wharfes are a better choice. (Parang imported chicken na mas mura kesa sa local.)

I know wharfe diamonds use kevlar cone materials that have better sonic characteristics than other mateirals except metal drivers. Try comparing which sounds better to your ears.

I think otherwise with wharfe diamonds. I've heard both using OKyo receiver. Dai-chi seems to have better frequency response than Wharfes. I'm not so sure however, if Daichi have a flat response over a period of time (usage).

last thursday kasama ko si tsonngo_26 nag audition kami sa Dai-ichi showroom sa Megamall. Ayos naman pala ang sound ng US Audio and DTX speakers, para sa akin pwedeng ikumpara ang Dai-ichi speakers sa Wharfedale. Nagustuhan ko yung DTX 9.5X slim series. Kinuwento na namin kina cebuyas_bombay and positive-noise yung audition namin. si cebuyas_bombay naniwala na maganda ang DTX speakers kasi narinig na niya yung DTX 9.5T paired with Onkyo receiver sa isa naming office mate. si positive-noise di talaga naniniwala walang bilib sa Dai-ichi.

last saturday with tsonngo_26, cebuyas_bombay, positive_noise and a friend pumunta kami sa raon mall para mag-audition ng Dai-ichi speakers. well after na marinig namin yung sounds ng speakers and subs finally convince na rin si positive_noise na pwedeng alternative ang Dai-ichi speakers. Ako yung slim series ang ok sa akin.

DTX 9.5T (floorstander) - P5.1K sa showroom - P3.8 sa Knight audio store
DTX 9.5B (bookshelf) - P2.9K sa showroom

mas maganda mag-audition sa megamall kasi 5.1 ang set-up nila, sa raon kasi pro-logic lang. anyway parehong mababait yung mga tao sa megamall and raon showrooms. yun lang po.

Maganda sa showroom kasi treated yung room. However, narinig ko na rin yung slim type sa isang oficemate namin, "bare" room pa yun, pero maganda pa rin yung response. And in my opinion, comparing Daichi with Wharfes, the former is superior than the latter.

Hi Bro,

I agree with Torque that Dai-ichi has gone a long way in improving their sound quality. Considering my vast experience in Professional Audio, I would say Dai-ichi is worth considering (especially the EFD60).

Next big question here is the durability?? I know other speaker has technologies that lessen the wear & tear of speaker cone, or improvement in the demagnetization event...! Any comment on this??

-enjoy!

Hi Bro,

I believe around 8K yung DTX na 15 inch Sub...

To Dai-ichi home user,

How's performance of Dai-ichi Speaker after years of usage??

Okay na okay yung sub ng Dai-chi (DTX 15"). Dun mo bilhin sa Knight Audio sa raon shopping mall. nasa 8K+ lang. Malinis bumayo to. walang sabit.

I have been to dai showroom. I have to pep talk the keeper as to make adjustment on the stereo gear kasi it passed to equalizer and a preamp with loudness on, that at the time of my initial listening e napawow ako sa ganda ng base (especially for their towers).

So, when the stereo gear was adjusted to all flat, the true sound came out. Compare it to a wharf, sa lowend, medyo malakas ang bayo - noting its 2 8" driver and big boxes. however, wharf has better handling of mid and the high.

Pero sa price, dai ichi is a potent alternative with the branded ones, with good aesthetics and deep bass kung hindi ka nakaflat setting.

I just though that their 2-8" driver tower speaker (about 5k per pair) could be a dual subwoofer in my setup for a lot less with a separate used amplifier from pier (at about 4k), maganda pa idisplay at hindi nakatago. Tapos, stand na rin siya ng 8.1 ko (he he he).

Sila rin gumagawa ng US Audio sub di ba? Ano difference ng US Audio sa DTX? Which is better? I'm currently eyeing the USAudio 508 or 512. Comments please...

shine · « **Reply #99 on:** Jul 28, 2003 at 09:01 PM »

pinagpilian ko din dati ang DTX 15" at ang USAUDIO 512L. sa ngayon usaudio ang setup ko at di ako nagsisi kasi kuntento ako sa performance nito,. almost a year na sa akin ang sub at habang tumatagal lalong gumaganda sa pandinig. Kuha ko dati sa 512 is P7k+, may nilabas silang 512L ngayon na mas improved na.

shine · « **Reply #100 on:** Jul 28, 2003 at 09:07 PM »

try mo i-compare yung dalawa, mas mababa ang dating nang 512 although sa tingin, talagang lamang ang DTX. tsaka yung design nila ay magkaiba.

magkano ngaun ang dtx 10 and dtx15?can u compare the sound to dynaquest dq12?

shine · « **Reply #103 on:** Jul 29, 2003 at 12:03 AM »

wala na rin akong makitang DTX 15" ngayon kahit sa showroom nila sa mega o sa raon. madali lang makita yun dahil sobrang laki nang speaker nun, gandang tingnan, at mahirap itago. halos magka-presyo lang sila nang usaudio dati.

t_s_o_n_g · « **Reply #104 on:** Jul 29, 2003 at 08:37 AM »

Comparing DTX 15 to US Audio 512 --- I would pick DTX 15. Mas maganda yung DTX15 kaysa US Audio 512. Malayong malayo sa performance. Huwag na kayong bumili ng DQ12. Malakas lang yung power pero bagsak yung quality ng sound. Kulang sa dumping--- umu-ugong.

d problem is saan kmi mgaudition? hirap talaga pglimited lang ang budget mo, pero at least good buy yng dai-ichi.

Dun sa may raon shopping mall sa dai-chi showroom. tapos bilhin mo sa knight Audio sa raon shopping mall din around 8k+ lang. Pwede ka rin mag audition dun sa megamall sa upscale malapit din sa showroom ng dai-chi dun. Pero mahal ang price sa upscale around 11K+. Mas mura talaga pag sa raon mo bilhin.

Check niyo yung DTX9.5T slim line series sa dai-chi website. This is a good choice for front speakers. I've auditioned this one and it really has a flat response. Heard this one as well from my friend paired with onkyo receiver --- talagang mapapawow ka sa quality ng sound niya. You can only get this speaker for only 3.8K sa raon mall... very affordable.

Yes, I am refering to tower. I've auditioned this both at megamall and raon showroom. But if you're planning to purchase better to go to raon mas mura dun. You can get this for only 3.8K compared to the showroom which is around 5.4K (SRP). Try as well the bookshelf... it sound well. Enough for surround speaker. Try mo rin audition yung center niya kung ok... di ko kasi na try. post ka rin ng review mo pag na audition mo. tnks!

Cheers
