Aurum Cantus F6600
Had a chance to listen to F6600 last Saturday at Chief Akyat's condo. our very very hospitable host of weekly session ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D, never a moment na hindi open yun place for the guys.. ;D ;D ;D ;D Saludo ako Chief. 8) 8) impression of F6600 was Surprising, Enjoyable and cautious.
Surprising...
Surprising, the thought how is this priced P10,500 ( less 10% pa hehehehe ) for 1 tweeter and 2 woofer design floorstander compare with other brands that are price around the 12k to 19k bracket. Iba talaga Chinese they know how to create a product that is to say light on the pocket. the Aurum F6600 has two tone scheme, grey facade and cherry vinyl body combo tapos black plinth, tweeter sports a textile soft dome tweeter that reaches 20Hz and a pair of 5 1/2 inch woofers for the midbass and LFE that goes 45hz. gold plated biwirable speaker terminals.
Enjoyable..
The Aurum F6600 are enjoyable to listen to play some fast to slow music at medium levels and it will respond with good and balance sound. I prefer music on the warm side and notice Aurum's highs are controlled not in any moment harsh nor bright instrument like brass have a good texture and bite, female vocals are standard nothing special but clear same with male voices, the mid bass are bouncy/tunefull pero would like to have some more feel of it.
Cautious..
I was cautious on bringing up the volume level with F6600 coz driven by my 30 watter AMX EL34 tube amp ( Modified ) notice in some passage especially in big bands or soundtracks that the bottom end tend to soften out or rolled off so checking the spec its impedance rating pala is 4 ohms and sensivity of 90db. pero i believe with an SS amp with 80 to 100 watts this will not happen. also gather that the F5000 bookshelf specs are 8 ohms at 90db promising.
Happy auditioning!!
