All user reviews for the Celestion Ditton 44 Collector Legend

I use the celestion Ditton 44 environt for 6 months but I know what type of speakers. Ha my friends why make it complicated when simple can have? distance criteria of power capacity and so-called high-tech, here is a model of simplicity and quality ...! what a pleasure Decout these "small" Wonderland! all is there's a serious medium bodied air diffusion, opened never aggressive and accurate treble for all you say "cashing it serious" then you have no fear as you turn the volume knob. For my part, I tested all kinds of speakers of all brands: 908.1 jm lab, mission 733i, cabasse skiff, Elipson Orpheus Ditton 66 ect ... I find that 44 have a listen quite natural and gives a good sensation on virtually all types of music. sold today at a price (most of the time) small, it would be inappropriate not to be tempted. a wise ...

I found a pair of Ditton 44 at your local recycling center (!). I have taken to the house, and after having connected I thought "What a fool was able to throw the speakers of this quality?".
The sound is crystal clear and sharp to take your breath away. The bass is serious and accurate, the treble is clear but never aggressive. The quality of these speakers is phenomenal, if one considers that they date from 1973 to 1974.
For those who find a pair to the recycling center (ben yeah, I was lucky, but it can happen again to someone else, right?) - Go ahead, take it and enjoy.
Myself, I use them as speakers "monitors" (listening studio) and they come to the end of 2000 € speakers / pair without problems. The only drawback may be significant in size.

I bought these speakers (Ditton 44) with my Premire chain in 1979. They have rendered loyal service during moult years on the music of the era j'coutais wild. Fairly indestructible, they are now the happiness of the country house of my in-laws, the buttocks of a small Denon.

Okay, c'tait speakers really not bad for the era, but still, I have some difficulty understanding the advice too passionate. When I changed my speakers there is a good dozen years, I had the opportunity to make comparative costs with Cabasse Skiff and Fregate. They do not compare: the Cabasses dtail had more and more performance, and the sound seemed much clearer (by comparison, the sound of Ditton 44 seemed really more dull). I did the test on my two amps at the time, who had a small Technics well VCU (one of my Premire string) and an Onkyo much larger.
The notice above t shared by all who had cost me the era.

I prcise when I had been looking to replace my d44 pregnant, my a priori choice s'tait Clestion port again (the Ditton 66).
In auditorium, in cost of DCID Cabasses I did not pursue with Clestion (and yet I had an a priori dfavorable on Cabasse, but I know why .. . the salesman had me well, my eyes were closed when I flash on the court and its rendering).
