AUDIO RESEARCH BOOKSHELF 2 WOOFERS UPGRADE

SVS Prime are bookshelf speakers with a rear bass reflex port having and aluminum tweeter and a 6.5” polypropylene woofer. The DAC and integrated amp have a precise and clean sound, putting a strong focus on timing, detail extraction and explosive dynamics.Īt the development cycle of this model, the American manufacturer has adopted some technologies used in the higher tier line such as the SoundMatch crossover and the 1” aluminum tweeter. Our cables remained the same, we used QED Reference XLR interconnects and AudioQuest Type4 and Kimber PR8 speaker cables. We changed it with a better streamer: Bluesound Node 2, that improved the perceived sound quality and solved my fetishes as MQA decoding, wireless connectivity to my PC and external HDD, a very simple app that will control everything directly from your smartphone, direct access to majority of streaming services as Tidal, Spotify, Deezer, etc and a lot more features (secondary DAC, headphone amplifier) that I did not test yet.
