Camber 2.5 Speakers


This wonderful pair of Camber 2.5 speakers showed up today, this is the second time have owned a pair of Camber speakers. The first pair was a set of Camber 3.5's prior to starting this blog. The bigger brother with 8" woofers.

Camber 2.5's are a 2 way speakers with an 6.5" woofer and a Vifa T-27D tweeter, these are built to rival perhaps Paradigm 7SE's, if not at least the 5Se in the early to mid 80's. They may even compete against the Mission speaker line during that time.

These speakers sound absolutely wonderful, the ported design compliments the 6.5" woofer as the bass is tight and full. In fact I am in awe at how much bass is coming from the diminutive woofer. The mid range is a little laid back but extremely smooth and the Vifa tweeters hit all the highs without any hints brashness, these Vifa tweeters are good.


The build quality of the cabinets and mid bass driver is outstanding. The Bextrene woofer has rubber surrounds that will last for years.

I am super excited to have these speakers again in the rotation as they look as good as they sound.

Any time Camber or Rega Camber speakers appear in a thrift store or Craigslist they are well worth picking up, they are that good.

These Camber speakers remind me of the Paradigm Control Monitors that graced my presence.
