A77X getestet vom britischen Magazin MusicTech

Berlin, 27. März 2012

Der horizontal ausgerichtete A77X wurde kürzlich vom britischen Magazin MusicTech getestet. Lesen Sie im Folgenden einige Auszüge des Tests im englischen Original.

[…] Unsurprisingly, the A77Xs delivered a wide and spacious soundstage with solid left/right imaging. […] Switching over to some electronica revealed a bottom end with tremendous energy and a nice degree of slam. Kick drums sounded extremely well defined, with differences in the intensity of pedal strikes easy to discern and quick transients in the attack frequencies around 2kHz.

Opening up
Similarly, bass lines were solid and even throughout the frequency range without the irritation of vanishing notes or boominess caused by hyped low-mids. At the treble end we found the stock settings a little bit subdued in a test room with a moderate amount of acoustic treatment, but things opened up considerably when we boosted the tweeter by a couple of notches.

The midrange may be the area in which the A77Xs will divide opinion. […] All monitors have their own character to an extent and it’s incumbent on the user to learn how they respond in any given space. […] However, they are fun and easy to work with, covering all the essential functions required of high-end monitors with aplomb.
