DeVore Fidelity speakers make me happy, energize me. Even after a long day of treading the show halls, I can sit down to listen to these speakers come out feeling revitalized. If you recall my factory visit, you'll know that an early iteration of The Nine featured a downward-firing woofer. The final product, seen here, however, is sideways-firing. I asked John DeVore about this."We found that the downward-firing driver was a little limiting," he said. "The sideways-firing woofer allows for more placement options. You can walk around the room while music is playing and hear that the tonal quality remains consistent."I trust him on this, having no desire whatsoever to walk away, compelled, instead to sit, happily enjoying the music.
