I would like to seek experience from folks who have listened to most of the Proac models up to £3,000. Particularly the following models:-
Tablette 10
Response DB1
Response D Two
Response RDB3
Response D20R
I am aware that from this list the D20R is a floorstand while the rest are bookshelves, not exactly a like-for-like comparison. I am looking at a broader perspective without analyzing in detail whether the speakers have to be in the same size, type or price range. I am looking at things such as emotional involvement, whether the speaker will be able to engage the listener on a long-term basis. A speaker which is more of an all-rounder, good at most things rather than very good in one area but poor in other areas. A speaker which sounds balanced across the frequency spectrum, not sounding too etched in the highs or too lightweight in the bass.
Read good things about the Tablette 10 but there were some remarks about it sounding lightweight in the bass. Similarly read good things about the D20R just to have some comments about it sounding bland with imprecise bass when compared to the larger D30R.
In summary, which speaker do you think is more of a keeper. A speaker which has a balanced set of strengths. I am aware it's all subjective and dependent on the room, equipment, personal taste and preferences etc. Just trying to have some idea on what folks here prefer.
I would appreciate thoughts from folks who have listened to most or all of the speakers as mentioned above.
