Lejonklou and ProAc

Post by Zee9 »

I’m wondering if anyone has tried this combination? The JMR bliss Silvers although good just weren’t the perfect match to our 2.5 tundra and id rather change speakers than the amp cause I’ve seen what the amp can do with other speakers.

I’ve found a local seller selling his mint ProAc response D 1.5’s but I’ve never heard any Proac’s.

I like that it’s a two way speaker and maybe an exalt possibility with two tundras and custom filters from @sunbeamgls but looking for opinions.

The other option is to stick with Kabers and find a third tundras to go aktiv.

2. WiiM Pro+/TS 2.5/Kan II’s
3. Genki/Kairn/5105/Kabers+Relt7i

I have owned ProAc D15's for many years, though recently moved them to a secondary system. I am not familiar with the JMR bliss Slivers but based on quick read of a few reviews it seems like they have more similar sonic attributes rather than differences. I am sure the ProAc's would sound great with the Tundra but that may not be to your personal taste. What about the Silvers don't you like? Are you looking for more of a detailed or etched sound (treble extension) in which case the something like JM Labs maybe more to your preference? Or are you looking for a greater soundstage and bass extension? Adding a subwoofer with the Bliss could be an option, but it is dependent on what you find missing. This being a Ljejonkou forum, the tune dem approach is also a consideration.

It is the only consideration. Please keep that in mind when commenting on this forum.

The bliss silvers had oodles of bass and I didn’t feel the need for a subwoofer. With the tundra they just sounded too warm and I felt like I was lacking some details. They were however a perfect fit for an Akurate power amp but I didn’t wanna go down that road again as I prefer the texture I get from a tundra.

I’m no Guru but I feel that the newer more clinical sounding Linn speakers work perfectly with a tundra or monos for this reason. It’s just what the doctor ordered.

The issue is I want to stick to a 2/3 way speaker with my Lejonklou amps.

Maybe the new Linn Majik 119 could be something for you? The smaller ones in the picture (the floorstanders are Majik 150's):

I have no price for the 119 yet, they are released on the 29th September. The 150's cost € 6.400,- and they sound mighty good!
