Recently there was probably nothing as low in audio as the BS surrounded Kharma loudspeakers. Each single step Kharma takes is further and further in-depth Kharma into the realm of bogusness. It is not that I find that “Kharma the Manufacturer” or “K...

Having heard specifically the Kharma 3.2 at length in the home of a friend for the life of me I cannot see the fascination. Absolutely the coldest sound I've ever heard. This speaker even with tube amplification I can describe best as like a 200...

Here is a good video foe your boring Friday. In most case it is a pure BS but a nicely professionally made BS. The comparing the Kharma making with the making of musical instruments is a cheesy as the word cheesy it could be? There are many very slip...

Hi Romy, I'm from the Netherlands and I've heard this news too.What do you think of Dunlavy speakers? Do you think they are crappy, worthless and outdated? I know John Dunlavy used some cheap drivers on his speakers. I have the SC-V. Chris...
|

Chris,
I do not know how my opinion about the Dunlavy related to news about the Kharma Loudspeakers. There is a differents between the “not-effective enough drivers” (for instance the woofers used in your SC-V) and the fundamentally faulty drivers t...

[quote user="Gregm"] Roman notes:
The industry/trend/fashion goes towards "the more aggressive compliance with those sonic sliceing-choping…".
Yes, BUT I don't see this as a design trend. Manufactueres don't target that sound -- but rather a...

Alex, I do not remember already the volume of those boxes, what is the deference? Thos drivers have an average sealed Qs and Fs I believe 19Hz, you might easy to circulate any volume you want. I slightly overdamped them, as usually, form where they s...

A friend of my told me a couple months back that CEC introduced a new version of their top of the line transport. It was kind of strange as CEC was abandoning to manufacture TL0 for years, or it was at least what they were claiming. Then I thought th...

Today’s prices in Hi-Fi do not base upon any other principle then “whatever market bears”. The luck of objective evaluation methods and the completely un-liberated market of Hi-Fi consumers make the “market bearing” principles being completely not ap...

What did you know; I was in Barnes & Noble and bought a first for quite long time September TAS magazine. I do not subscribe audio publications but seldom buy them. Since I did not do it for as long time I though it will be entertaining. It...

I listened to $$$ Wavac amps with 833 tube driving Kharma speakers and I found it sounds like the old tube radio in my garden hut at 40°C. Why not more semi-active speakers with high-sensitivity mid/treble and transistor-powered bass? ...

Dear Romy, The price is 167,000 Euro I was told. The material they used for bass cabinet at least looked like MDF. Sound was much better than any speaker I've heard in show, expect Cessaro which was wonderful. BTW Marten, Kharma, Focal, Magico and s...
