Sherwood S-8250 CP listening update



I had a good audio session last night with this receiver, the characteristics of this unit emphasis a bit more bass and a laid back mid range.

The Sherwood worked really well with my Mission 770 Freedom IV's and the Pioneer HPM-60's. The Paradigm Control Monitors are bass heavy and not as forward in the mid range so the sounds did not work well with these speakers.

The Dual CL390's finished off the night and these speakers brought out the true sound of the receiver, uncovering the warmth that receivers of this era give off.

I have a feeling this receiver will be around for awhile.

Sony SS-E70 reigns supreme

Interesting blog stats show that the Sony SS-E70 speakers are the most sought after search on this blog, mostly from European searches.



These are surprisingly good speakers with a sound signature that is close to my Dual CL390's. The Braun dome mid range and tweeter revel the details in the music more than the Sony's, but they are close.

Funny, these speakers have stuck around for longer than usual.
