I’m looking to get a Hi Fi system based on streaming only – no turntable or CD player required and I think I’ve settled on a Wiim Ultra. I have been given an option on a very lightly used Mission 778X amp at a really good price. This leaves the speakers; I’ve started to read reviews and see terms like bright, forward, big sound stage etc and wondered if anyone could translate into plain English what these mean please.
To place a bit of context I went into my local Sevenoaks store and listened to some Wharfedale 12.1, which I didn’t like – the higher frequency sounds to me were "crispy" especially with drum cymbals – reducing the treble just seemed to reduce the overall clarity. However looking online I can’t seem to see any mention of this – perhaps it’s just my own sensitivity or perhaps I’m not reading the reviews correctly ?
I did also test the Ruark Sabre whilst I was there and those were much more to my taste…at an increased price
I know I will have to listen in person but was hoping the reviews might help me create a short list of suitable candidates…or perhaps not?
