    New K2 S9900

    Today I saw on the web some review announcing the last K2 project : S9900

    In fact, it looks like a K2 S9800 mounted with the 476be driver. The horn remind me the Everest design.

    I would appreciate more details.
    Regards Stephane

    Nice. If what has been said is true, that, and a good subwoofer, might even be preferable to the Eversest II, although I would think there is a somewhat raised crossover frequency.

    Quite possibly in some rooms... I had a sneak peek at them a few months ago... these pics look more diminutive than the speaker appears in person. They are quite shallow, but are wider than you might imagine. All and all a heck of a step forward from the 9800.

    " you just wouldn't believe that kind of sound coming out from those boxes......" were careening from my right to left ear, giving me a migraine.
    You just have to turn it around. Yes I do believe what I hear and I don't like it. Works for me.

    It is very true what Titanium dome has said about the Array 1400's and the K2.

    The Array 1400's are amazing in every way but once you hear the 9900's done properly there is no going back.

    I tell people the same thing with expensive things in life. If I always just read about them instead of purchasing some things along the way, I may never enjoy life,and it may end up being to late.

    We all just go around once.

    I have the Array 1400 in a nice soundroom and in our show room we have the K2

    our showroom is not a great room and under those conditions some pepole have told me that the arrays sound better

    but too me the K2 simply do a better job and i know the room is playing a big roll

    K2 are simply excelent 1400array are just great

    both bring art into our homes.

    just my two cents
