The speakers in my audio studio are really old but still good Celestion DL8's - I was working in a hifi store in the 80/90s and tried loads and bought them. I know them well. In my other studio, I've got RCF 5" ones - which are great for speech upwards but have nothing much below 60Hz - I've also got a spare pair of 12/1" more PA than recording. They're bassy but sound naff. A friend has some T8V Adams, and another friend has Adams (the twin bass driver versions) in his studio. I've taken their recommendations and found a pair of T8Vs in a sale so ordered them. I'm wondering about what will happen when they arrive. Will they actually replace the 30+ year old Celestions I know so well, or will they just upgrade the other studio so I can use it for proper audio rather than just video?
I suppose I'll wait till I'm home in mid January but the date for returning will have expired.
Will these brand new Adams sound better/more accurate/truthful than the old ones? Have they really become tired but my ears have too?
I'm looking forward to the surprise. Reviews seem pretty good, with useful bass down to 33Hz.
Anyone care to predict, then we can compare in the new year?
