Sir, yung na audition mo sigurado di pa broken-in kaya siguro parang ok na rin. kung bitin ka sa bass better audition the 9.5. balita ko meron daw sa park square 1 (alin shops kaya). Kung meron 9.4, audition mo rin. Sir wag ka mahiya dun sa mga shops dahil pera mo naman ang pambibili mo dun eh, diba.

SARS, naku po! :o  Huwag kang maintriga, sir at baka magsisi ka.  ;D




Don Kimpao,

Di pa break in yun 9.3 ng spectra na audition ko yun eh..  :)

i've been there yesterday at spectra around 7:30pm and naka-play ang 9.3 connected to an hk 130. my overall impression is ok sya though parang bitin ng konti yung treble and bass (sorry if my terms are wrong, i'm just starting on this hobby  :)) pero like someone posted here na di pa nabi-breakin kasi.

gusto ko sana talaga marinig ang 9.5, nag offer na nga dun yung isang tauhan (hindi si jim) sa spectra na ilalabas nya nya yung 9.5 para ma-audition ko. kaso my mahiyain in nature got the better of me (hassle kasi na buksan pa nila yung box plus hindi magaan ang 9.5 ha) so i told him na next time na lang pag talagang bibili na ako.

the chinese guy (anak ata ng may-ari) showed me the diamond 9.sr (surround speakers), medyo naliitan ako (actually maliit talaga siya) so i think hindi sya maganda gamitin if you're into sacd/dvd-a surround playing. he also informed me to inquire from time to time for the availability of the 9.6 (my first preference  ;D) starting today. sana dumating na!

Nyahahah..akala ko ako lang ang naghihintay ng 9.6 ikaw rin pala... ;D

Ako rin...hunting for that 9.6. 

Been to Sights and Sounds sa Shangrila last night and was able to audition 9.1.  To my ears, mas maganda siyang tumunog kaysa 8.1.  Mas litaw ung bass niya na medyo kulang naman sa 8.1.  Mas maganda rin looks niya with the black kevlars kahit alisin mo yung cover nya, ganda pa rin. Pero ang price niya is Php6+.  Nakita ko rin 9.4 and 9.5 pero medyo nahiya na akong pa-audition, try ko audition mamayang lunch time.  The 9.4 is slightly smaller than the 8.3 and the 9.5 is slightly taller than 8.3 but rear ported siya which, in my opinion, medyo mapili sa set-up.

For people like me, control and chastix,  we'll have to prepare for something like 15k >:( - 18k >:( for that big 9.6.

yup, plastic pa rin pero a very big improvement kesa grills ng series 8. stud-type (tama ba term ko) ang sa series 9 unlike dun sa series 8 na parang clip-type. and the material used is much sturdy. ok na sya. plus pag kinatok mo yung kahoy (the speaker housing) mas solid ng konti  :)
