Deccavolt Speakers
Posted by: trickytree on 28 June 2003
Ive been looking at the Wilmslow Audio site recently and the 'modern day' version of the Deccavolt in particular.
Iv'e long fancied building my own speakers, (being a chippy it's nice to be surounded by your own handywork), and am interested in there Classique kit for a couple of reasons.
Firstly it uses the same Volt BM220 mid/bass unit as there Home Studio Monitor that I heard some years ago. I was very impressed by there bass performance, but they did sound a little 'up front' (although this was with a mid price Japanese CD player and amplifier).
Secondly I used to have a pair of Infinity Kappa 7's and although not the most gripping speaker to listen to it's Emit tweeter was a wonder with vinyl, pure, clean, extended treble that just went on forever.
So I was wondering if any of you guy's have any info on the old Deccavolts. Has anybody used them with Linn/Naim?
Yours hopefuly, Paul
