In comparison with the Simaudio Moon W-5, the Sonic Frontiers Power 2 seemed relatively mellow in the bass and softer in the treble, but with a glowing presence in the midrange that the Moon W-5 lacked. Those features were advantageously mated to the Genesis 500 speakers. The Power 2, however, lacked the sheer, gutsy power of the W-5 on the Apogee Duettas, and was somewhat generous in the midbass with the Coincident Troubadors.—Kalman Rubinson
