Habe die Heco im Vergleich zu meinen neuen Kanton Ergo 902DC laufen lassen. Ergebnis: Die Bässe gehen bei der "alten" Heco anscheinend tiefer runter, ansonsten bei beiden Boxen vergleichbar tolles Klangbild aber mit leichten Vorteilen für die Heco 950. Die Heco ist besonders bei klassischer Musik hörbar differenzierter!! Anscheinend gibts inzwischen keine Fortschritte im Lautsprecherbau mehr - oder liegts an den gesunkenen Preisen??

Reviews[edit]

Absolutely clean, differentiated highs and mids. Fantastically punchy and dry bass - the additional purchase of a subwoofer is absolutely unnecessary!!! Compared the Heco with my new Kanton Ergo 902DC. Result: the bass seems to be deeper with the "old" Heco, otherwise both speakers have a comparable great sound but with a slight advantage for the Heco 950. The Heco is audibly more differentiated, especially with classical music! Apparently there is no more progress in loudspeaker design - or is it because of the lower prices?
