Davis Acoustics Nikita

The Nikita versions are a little - lying in the grave as upscale at Davis Acoustics: The Karla (150kg each) but are equipped with the same components.

Although the format front view may suggest a bookshelf there is nothing yet.

We have a 2-way passive with what is best from Davis. Kevlar cone tweeter and also cone bass and kevlar. The crossover is very high performance.

The manufacturer indicates 45Hz-22khz. After this measurement is actually but + / - 1.5dB. to + /-3dB is happening in the grave around 37Hz without problems. All on 200W. The minimum weight about 15kg. Bi-Amplification ...

The StudioCSD should be equipped with a second pair of high-end listening more mastering. We already the big Genelec 1037, Tannoy Precision 8D of the eternal and Yamaha NS10M.

Although not originally built with a view to use Mastering is Nikita Davis proves to be an ideal tool for this phase of a project.

SOUNDS

The sound is crazy! I have already heard some great systems like Klinger Favre, PMC ... What impressed with my first listen to Nikita is the fact to find that ultimate precision on the stamp. But mostly ... dynamics especially unusual.

On projects that Classical music is mastered at Studio is obvious. For larger projects we compressed better control transients Mastering.

The stereo image is in fact extremely precise. But especially the deep sounds of classical music discs parts of percussion and brass although 2-3 m derière speaker ...
More albums about POP placement and adjustment of the reverb is crucial and perfectly just.

The bass is tight to limit the spectrum. Dry and dynamic it is easily integrated into any sound.

OVERALL OPINION

We should not forget the importance of the amplifier and wiring. Equipped with a Bryston amplifier and cables Sommer Cable Blue Quadra premium we arrive at a pair of really small budget not pregnant (a little less than 10.000euros).

There the Monitor 1 in the range originally built for Davis Studio. Although these splendid volume asking too much room for our studio.

Nikita has come the incredible performance with a volume of more realistic piece.

More consistency is perfect even at very low volume.

It is difficult for me to find time for problems. Seeking out the particular cash volmue and rear vent requires the construction of a fairly massive foot and remove them frankly ripe for what is expressed. On this point some studio will have a space problem and disposal.

There are a lot of copies on the net that resembles Nikita Dufait found the HP sales alone. Be careful though because the integrated filter das Nikita is upscale and depth of the enclosure important. The upper corners are beveled and the tweeter is surrounded by a rectangular plate with high density foam for enhanced stereo accuracy.

A beautiful pair of beautifully made pregnant, not within the reach of all budgets, they are all in a report malgrés qualitée price incredible.
