Cadmobile500 Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 It's been said the Chorus 2 is a much better speaker than the Forte 2. Since the mid and tweeter are virtually the same would it be worth upgrading to the Chorus 2 from the Forte 2 when using a subwoofer? I have Forte 2 now and a Lavoc 18" sub. It will take some work to fit the Chorus 2. Not to mention waf. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OO1 Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Chorus II would be interesting if you can find speakers in very good condition with no need for repairs the Chorus dimensions are roughly 4 inches higher x 2 inches wider x 2 inches deeper vs a Forte II , finally the price , the Chorus and the Forte seem to be selling for pretty much the same prices lately.

Cadmobile500 Posted December 26, 2023 Author Share Posted December 26, 2023 They are much bigger. Can move the TV up but will be difficult to keep my av rack and center speaker centered. Wife is opposed. Maybe a second sub with Herressy's on top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter P. Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 You've got two factors adding up to say "no". The Choruses won't fit the space without raising the TV and moving the center speaker off-center. WAF. You're lucky she doesn't want the Fortes to go. Be content with what you have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see no need to move the TV, worst case scenario the center speaker stand and sub move to the right a couple inches so the center wouldn't be "centered" on the stand but could still be centered under the TV. They're both great speakers room acoustics and equipment matching will play a big role on which you prefer. For me I've always preferred the Chorus models higher sensitivity and more forward midrange bass isn't as deep but seems a bit more accurate. Again only way to know for sure is try them out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
