cafe67 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) Item: Falcon Studio 30 floorstanding speakers ( walnut finish) Location: perth Price: $4900 ono + postage Item Condition: 9,5 - no marks, scratches , spotless Reason for selling: Revel F208 Payment Method: Pickup - Cash,, COD Only Extra Info: I bought these in April 2019 , intrigued by the design and the reviews (below) and also through much discussion with Andy at Audiofix over their suitability in my room. in short they work fine in my room and with their down firing port , makes for a lot of versatility in room positioning. Ultimately I enjoyed their sound enough to sell my Dynaudio confidence 5. but as always in this great game, a recent read up and current home demo of Revel F208 have made me decide to purchase them as hopefully an “ end game” speaker. Well that’s the plan these present as new , out of the boxes and set up - No marks at all. So like new with a discount price. sounds wise, I play a wide variety of music through them and found them to be detailed and balanced, never becoming over bright the high and mids in particular are impressive. Female vocals in particular sound very nice. The bass is fast and well defined - certainly not plodding. Build quality is spot on, weight in at 35kg each, with 25mm cabinets made in Italy and the heavy and solid plinths. At a pinch they do look a bit like mid period Sonus Faber, but certainly they look even more impressive in the flesh. With their design slimline dimensions, could be a alternative to a similar priced standmount? I have the boxes (3) and packaging so transport/courier isn’t an issue. Happy demo at home to interested parties interesting titbit, Falcon are distributed the USA by Mofi electronics.

psychometrics1 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Buy with confidence from this respected and careful gentleman of HiFi. Good luck Dave re the possible 'end game' speakers as they should be wonderful. Inevitably you will speculate on how your former electronics may have synergised with them... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
