Isobarik vs Ninka.

Posted by: Mats on 01 August 2002

If I want to change from isobarik to Ninka, is this stupid, can I win something on the way, except easy handling(smaller speakers).
I guess that one thing I loose is the more powerful bass.

So the question is isobarik still a real kicker,
and should I keep them and still be satisfied

Get a home-loan. Properly set-up they sound great and massive sounding.

One thing for sure, Ninkas (IMHO) beat Keltiks. Another possibility is to replace the tweeters in the Bariks for a pair of Ninka tweeters.

Had a brief flirtation with replacing the briks last year. Ninka's were one of the options I auditioned. I've still got the briks. Today picked up a set of (4) tweeters. Will post the results when I get around to changing them.

I think if you ask a question like this you will likely only end up more confused than ever. As the most coloured and room dependent of components, you will never get a consensus on speakers. You really must try in your own system, your room, with your music collection, AND YOUR OWN EARS. All will have a profound effect on which speakers work for you. I don't think there is any way around this. I have and enjoy ninka's but that is completely irrelevant to you and your ears as I suspect others opinions re. this matter may be - although admittedly its interesting to get other opinions.
From everything I've heard, properly set up and powered Briks are amazing speakers though, so if you are happy with them, why change. If you aren't, why narrow yourself to just Ninka's. there are lots of other smaller - than Briks - speakers out there worth a listen as well.
