I initially had my heart set on the elegant gold finish, but the rich acoustics paired with the oak grille created such warm, layered soundscapes. In the end, audio perfection won over aesthetics – I chose the oak combo. Though I must admit, the gold body would’ve been stunning with the fabric grille option.

  1. I completely get why you went with the oak finish over the gold – the sound really does shine in a different way compared to how it looks. The oak grille and rich acoustics together create such a cozy and immersive listening experience, especially noticeable when switching between genres like jazz and electronic.

  2. I totally get why you went with the oak option—it really does make a difference in how the sound feels. The contrast between those rich tones and the elegance of the gold finish is tough to ignore, but it sounds like the oak just nails that cozy yet dynamic vibe. Have you noticed any difference in sound when switching between music genres?

    1. Absolutely! I’ve found that the oak version does bring out different nuances depending on the genre. With classical or jazz, the warm tones shine even more, creating an almost intimate listening experience. When switching to something upbeat or electronic, the oak’s resonance keeps things lively without overpowering the bass. Thanks for your thoughtful comment—it’s always great to hear from fellow audiophiles!
