AEA R84 vs. Coles 4040
any comparative experiences?
Mr. Dorsey gave high marks on the 4040, so that counts for about 10,000 points. Recently I heard a blumlein acoustic guitar tracks using AEA R84's which was awesome (I would even say "unimprovable" within its sonic idea). But maybe the new Coles is even better because it's making use of new ideas? |

The R84 is much more rolled off on the top end... you might like that a lot (it's almost certainly a good thing on horns), but you might not (I suspect it's not as good a thing on acoustic guitar). They are both well worth trying out, though, and Wes will loan you both with a deposit. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
