That is comparison I was looking for. Thank you. I would love the KPT-MCM-3 GRAND. But I don't know I will be on my own trying to figure out a cross over for it. -
Kind of what I've got going on @MicroMara What the little speakers lack is the down-low, got the sub working 18K to 45K and it's good enough! -
1 ) increases the bass volume approx from + 3 to + 6 dB 2 ) they sound better on a stand as beeing placed within a bookshelf Advantage is a better room positioning in view to your listening place ...good idea to do that 👍 -
I haven't heard the 3-way original Jubilee, but I can tell you that the Heritage Jubilee is much better in the higher frequencies than the 2-way Underground Jubilee. Once the K-402/Axi2050 combination is eq'd flat, the response goes out to 20 kHz and beyond. In fact, if you are going to use the Axi2050, I suggest that you try it 2-way. That has the advantage of removing a crossover point and making the speaker close to a point source until it crossed with the bass bin. (Either way you can also lower the crossover point with the bass bin to get the polars to better match at that point.) -
I have 3-way UG Jubs with TADs 4002/691s and 884 and 684 subs. All that in any 2-way/3-way + either subs combo simply does not approach the new Heritage Jubs. I was there and heard them side by side. A different beast altogether. But........I'm actually very happy with all that as is........for now. Where else you gonna go? MCM maybe? -
Not their best song, but... This does help with the pressure... with 800W behind it!

Ok with that being said, is there a large gap in fidelity for the high frequencies and upper mids between the 3 way Jubes and the Heritage Jubes? I am assuming the Heritage Jubes sound more coherent. But the 3 ways were more prominent In the high frequencies compared to the older 2 way UG Jubes I heard . I am not interested in differences in the lower frequencies since I will always use horn loaded subs. -
Now it is so far. I dare once again the jump into the world of moving coil TA's. Not that I had not previously owned some, there were already some, for example Wega, Sony, Denon, Ortofon. Since I now have the Trichord Phono Pre it´s not longer a problem to this also optimally adapt. After a long time back and forth, I would like to feel my way back to it and don´t want to spend....1 K€ or whatever and this is still upscale entry level, no that´s not my business . Accordingly, I have decided for a " Vintage MC " Yamaha MC 11, it is NoS and have purchased it on Sunday. It´s on it´s way to me already. Technical data as follows : Type: moving coil Output Voltage: 0,35 mV Frequency Response: 10Hz-50kHz Tracking Force: 1.8g Mass: 5.3g Channel Separation: 28dB Output Impedance: 30 ohms Stylus Tip: elliptical Cantilever : aluminum Dynamic Compliance: 7 x10-6cm/Dyne Can adjust it optimally on the Trichord as follows: load 1.1 nF 33 ohms, gain 0.25 to 0.4 mV = 70 dB gain. What I have read has impressed me , it probably plays better than his " big " still popular brother MC 9 , is said to play far above the Denon DL 103 ,above the Audio Technica 30 E or AT OC-9 and others. Should be able to reproduce space and depth , plays more homogeneous and musical than the MC 9 . The detail resolution is more accurate , the localization sharpness very precise in depth. Reminds sonically of the Grace F9. It sounds very dynamic and agile with really good and especially dry low bass on medium-heavy arms around the 14-15gr. The preconditions are given to drive it optimally . Let´s hear how it sounds , will tell you in a few days
