Why do vintage speakers sound better?
1 Answer
Some people find that vintage speakers sound better because they don't feature the bass-boosting technology often used in modern AV equipment. As a result, vintage speakers can make it easier to discern between different instruments like double and upright basses. However, this is a matter of personal preference. Many people prefer the sound quality of modern-day speakers. Shop a range of speakers on 1stDibs.
