ay sorry wrong mistake. 10.1 po yung hindi ko pa naririnig.
ang available na lang sa mga stores kasi 10.1 or 10 series na, so far yung 9.1 palang naririnig.

kalangan marinig mo muna bago ka magbigay ng konklusyon kung alin ang pasadong tunog sa panlasa mo...
Anthem CD1
Anthem Pre1
Audio Linear TT
Ortofon Rondo Red
Theta Dac
GTA SE-40 Amp

Baka type mo yung "fuller" sound ng 9.1 vs the RTi. Pero mas malinaw highs nung Polks. Had the 9.1 as my very first speaker paired with a NAD 320bee.  Maganda siya for starters, pero once you go higher up the food chain, medyo ngongo yung 9.1 compared to other speakers.

yap mas fuller nga yung sound nya. mas nagusutuhan ko. siguro nga after kong makabili ng speaker sa thursday iwas muna ako sa forum. iwas SARS :D

People say sound is subjective but when this guy favors the cheaper brand others criticize his choice.

Sorry, but my comments are not out to criticize but these are my opinions only, having owned the Diamond 9.1 myself and after extensively auditioning the Polks. 

As I said, the thread starter (TS) preferred the diamonds after an audition, but he can actually do better if he moves up in price range a bit, to the 10.1 or to RTi series of Polk. Mas makakatipid in the long-run.

But, if he prefers the 9.1, de ok . . .

Either way, you'd likely have to modify or replace the crossover to compensate for the driver change.

hmmm... ang haba na ng thread na to ah. :-)

i still own the 8 series (8.2, 8C, 8DFS).  My subjective opinion is that its more tamed in the highs.

Now itching for the 10 floorstanders.  ;D

yup. tweeter and crossover upgrade. i don't think i'll be selling the 9.3 so might as well play around with it and see how much performance juice i can squeeze out of it.

but could those tweaks affect soundstage and imaging?

Yes, and the change could be positive or negative. To get a better chance of a positive outcome, you have to build a crossover that will properly meld your two drivers together.

ito pala ang maitim na balak mo. wala e mukang mauudlot speaker upgrade ko na malamang mapunta sa laptop or bagong phone ni misis. kaya iexplore ko muna ang pwede gawin dito sa kung ano ang meron. hehe
