I've had 2.5s for 20 years. Just superb. They do need a very good power amp to control them as they are not the most sensitive, but oh so worth it! Agree with other comments - they like space to breathe.
I have them and they are very sensitive in positioning. Need a fair amount of space from the wall (like you have them). They are an excellent set (even the smaller ProAcs are great). My Luxman (M4000A Tim De Paravicini design) moves them very well. Even our cables seem the same.
I don't think any reviews can prepare a person; for what they will experience from a "fully broken-in" pair of 2.5's. I own apogee full ribbon speakers...no contest the 2.5's kill. My God, it takes so long for the 2.5's to wake up? Worth the wait.
@@beslemeto They must have been unplugged for 19 of those 20 years or never used at all player...because WOW!! Outstanding. The Music Room did me a solid. I heard the new stuff...not even close to my 2.5's. Only Aventgarde can get with my babies...plasma tweeters needed. I feel like I am at "The Back Room" in Chicago (You don't know about that. LOL
Just wow!!! Burn-in took forever...still in progress. However; these babies just woke up. I was initially feeling depressed....lol. Now I am beyond impressed. So realistic and organic sounding. The biggest surprise... unimaginable bass from "7in" carbon woofers?!!! More bass then my Klipsch.
Klipsch are overrated and I don't say that lightly. After owning Cornwall IV I feel I have some authority to say that. I currently own DT8s which are fantastic compared to other speakers in this price range.
Beautiful sounding system, I have the Proac Response 2.5's also but only have the A 3.2 Integrated, wish I had the Pre/Amp combo like yours, what did you use to record this video ?
@@nelsonmpereira1 Good evening. Do you know which amplifiers the Proack 2.5 can work with? Can they cooperate, for example, with the Lavardin itx 20? or with Leben 600?
If buying used and using solid state, you will need to burn these speakers in. Prior owners may have used 10 to 40 watt tube amps. When they say 60 to 100 hours...they mean it. They mean "actual play time", not plugged in. May take a Month to get halfway there. It is worth the wait! Happy listening to all. : )
Я не знаю на сколько точно и хорошо микрофон выдаёт то, что воспроизводит акустика. Но очевидных провалов очень много. Например шейкер почти не слышен. Многое вовсе не не звучит, А каким то фоном. Ладно если б это было на басу и высоких, а это входит в средний диапазон частот.
You notice how many ribbon version of the 2.5's are for sale on eBay? Lol There is a reason. The O.G. 2.5's, measurements-sheaggerance...who cares? The human ear loves these speakers. Period.

Superb old school sound. Simply ProAc

This is the speaker I used to have way back middle east.. its an awesome speaker if u used mono block.. 👍
Why monoblock? I have an integrated amp, an Ayon. It does very well. What is the advantage of a monoblock amp? Cheers.

P.S. The crossover is simple, because the modification of the drivers is what provides the magic.

Only way to own a pair of mint classic 2.5's is if the owner....is no longer with us.
Whats the name of the music playing?
Caro Antonio pode falar portugues pois pelo nome parece ser cá dos nossos!
Nelson Pereira ok certíssimo ;) e amante de bom som. quais as músicas que colocou a tocar? cumps

ja vi que tambem anda em testes audiofilos, que tal correu isso?
Espectacular! Estou a testar também Eva Cassidy e algum Jazz. Para já estou imensamente contente com o meu setup! Tudo em FLAC lossless para já.

Pro Ac speakers sound like air.
Можно чокгуться на звуке и это хорошо дорого как жизнь
