    ADS L1590 vs. AR-90

    I used to own L620s, L880s, L1590s and L1590/2s. But, I already sold L620s, L880s and L1590s. Now, I have only L1590/2s. Still, I miss the sound of L1590s. I'm finding them again. Then, I found L1590s and AR-90s. I asked here for the opinions.

    ADS L1590 vs. AR-90

    I used to have a pair of ADS L1590s. I can still recall their sound, and it has always impressed me. So far, I have located a pair of ADS L1590s for sale near me. A pair of AR-90s is also for sale, although in a different neighborhood. Because they are in the same price and range. This bothers...

    ADS L980 vs. JBL L112

    What does “having no personality” mean? Do you mean they play “so-so” to all kinds of music genre? Or do they have the boring sound?

    ADS L980 vs. JBL L112

    Currently, I use ADS Atelier A1, 65Wpc, with them, the dual woofers floor-standing ADS. But next month, I will have been using an Atelier A2, about 105-180Wpc (according to the brochure), with them instead since I’ve won the bidding at eBay recently.

    ADS L980 vs. JBL L112

    An old thread suggested that ADS didn't often use the 12-inch woofers in their speaker design, instead, they used dual 8-inch that could move the air equivalently to a single 12-inch woofer. And this is the key that made their bass sound tighter. But IMHO, it's a bit too tight. However, in the...

    ADS L980 vs. JBL L112

    As I read the prior posts and comments, I could conclude that the JBL would give more bass punch, moderate midrange and greater treble, whereas the ADS which I'm more familiar with would give less bass, but more transparent midrange and treble. Am I correct? IMO, the ADS speakers with pop...

    ADS L980 vs. JBL L112

    I found a pair of ADS L980 and a pair of JBL L112. Both are being sold at the same USD1,000. Firstly, is this reasonable price? I’m, actually, a fan of ADS and never listen to JBL (vintage JBL/same era with ADS). I listen to pop music, 70s-80s songs, but don’t listen to Jazz. Classic and disco...

    ADS L980 Refurb

    Hi, Why did you send the midranges and tweeters for rebuilding? I saw that they were in good shape. Their domes have no dents or scratches. The sticky coats still existed.

    Should I buy ADS L980/2 speakers?

    I sold my ADS L620s yesterday. I'm thinking of buying ADS L980/2s. But I still own ADS L1590/2s. I've known that the L980/2 and L1590/2 use the same mid and tweeter; same part numbers. So, should I buy the L980/2 speakers? I expect something different from the L1590/2s to open new experiences...

    ADS L620 vs. L730

    I currently own ADS L620 speakers. They're 2-way, with a 10" woofer and a 1" tweeter per enclosure. Recently, the local shop has been selling a pair of ADS L730. The L730s are 3-way with a 10" woofer, a 1.5 mid-dome, and a 0.75" tweeter. And yes, the woofers and cabinet sizes of the two are the...

    ADS L980 vs. L1590/2

    @nolasally You misunderstand. I mean the 1590 uses dual 10" equals to single 15". And 1290 uses dual 8" equals to single 12".

    Braun/ADS Atelier amplifiers

    Hi, I own a pair of ADS L1590/2, or Braun LS200 speakers. I currently drive them with a Braun/ADS Atelier A1 integrated amplifier. A few days ago, I let the amplifier clipped. I'd like to ask for opinions that whether I should change the amplifier to be a higher-power one? Since I'm a fan of...

    ADS L980 vs. L1590/2

    Yes, I think so. The nomenclature of floor-standing ADS is set so that it implies the woofer's size, e.g., L1590: 15 = 15" woofer equivalent, L1290: 12 = 12" woofer equivalent. In my case, I have the L1590/s in the living room and am looking for another pair in a smaller bedroom. Hence, the...

    ADS L980 vs. L1590/2

    Hello, I have a pair of ADS L1590/2. Use them as main speakers in my living room. Drive them with an ADS Atelier A2 amplifier. I'm looking for a smaller pair to be used in my bedroom. I've known that ADS L980s use the same tweeters and midranges with the L1590/2s. The woofers are different...

    Braun speakers model comparison

    I currently live in Bangkok, Thailand. And yes, I’ve heard ADS speakers. I own a pair of L620, L880, and L1590. But, frankly, I’ve never listened to Braun speakers before. This will be my first Braun pair if I have the opportunity to own them.

    Braun speakers model comparison

    Braun amp is best with Braun speakers, I believe. Actually, my Braun amp currently drives ADS L620 speakers as can be seen on my profile picture.

    Braun speakers model comparison

    I recently obtained a Braun Atelier A1 integrated amplifier. I'm looking to buy a pair of Braun speakers to use with it. My local shop offers me "Braun L8080HE" and "Braun LS80" with reasonable prices. But, I cannot buy them both. Still, I cannot try them with my amp and also compare them...
