They're a better fit for the small size of my apartment. The Forte's need a little more room than I can give them.Local pickup only in NYC Edited August 6, 2015 by Jason Todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwells Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I remember reading that thread at AK. Pricey upgrades indeed. I wish that I had never sold my Forte I's. They seem to polarize some folks over at AK but I really liked mine. GLWTS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Todd Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 I'd keep them if I had a bigger room. One of the downsides of city living. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RT FAN Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 With all of those modifications that is a lot of speaker for $600. I would be tempted if I didn't already have a pair of Forte 1's in my apartment. BTW they are not too big for city living considering they replaced my Cornwall II's ! The Fortes look rather modest by comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Todd Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 Thanks, Stephen. I suppose it depends on the room. My living room is somewhere in the neighborhood of 10ft x 8ft. Pretty tiny for the Forte's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
