DeVore Gibbon 3XL review TechRadar
The DeVore Fidelity Gibbon 3 loudspeakers could be passed over by audio playboys looking for new equipment instead of equipment to live with. The price is not shocking enough and the appearance is attractive without resorting to piano-gloss glitz. The Gibbon 3 loudspeakers are a two-way ported box loudspeaker with a 1" silk dome tweeter and a 4.

Feb 12, 2019. #5. ryanmh1 said: Funny. My takeaway from that was that KEF has a winner on its hands, and DeVore has a speaker that needs to be heavily rejiggered. That suckout from 80Hz all the way up to 500Hz is anything but pretty. And then from 3kHz to 4.5kHz.. Ouch.

An obvious contender at the Gibbon's price of $4295/pair (including stands) is my reference Harbeth Compact 7 ES-3 at $3495/pair (plus stands). I find that the Harbeth provides a somewhat richer, fuller sound—its cabinet is larger—but maybe a little less immediately apparent low-level detail.

Portugal and while this may not be a particularly useful reference, I thought that I would briefly share my impressions. Some context: I have been using Harbeth 30.1 for a couple of years, and am largely quite happy with them. I listen to a lot of jazz, and acoustic music, with which the Harbeth's are generally known to shine.
Devore Fidelity Coup de Foudre
An absolutely full-range and utterly transparent reference speaker for the gibbon series. Easy to drive and easy to place in any room. The gibbon X is a three-way system with a new 3/4 inch ultra-low-mass textile dome tweeter suspended in an inert chamber, a new 7 inch midrange driver with a phase-plug and inverted natural rubber surround in it's own sealed enclosure and a pair of massive.

The stands are a $695/pr add to the cost of the already $3700 3XL yet, as stands highly recommended, a perfect match in appearance and function. Devore offers the 3XL in a Mahogany or Mink Bamboo finish, also with stands to match in the selected finish. The advertised frequency range is 45Hz - 40kHz, Sensitivity is 90dB/W/M and impedance is 8 ohms.

Devore vs Harbeth Can anyone compare these speakers. Harbeth HL5's or c7 to a Devore super 8 or 9. I know what the Harbeth sounds like, but have never heard Devore and there aren't any dealers close. From reading reviews they sound like they have the same qualities. Thanks Mike brm1 10-30-2010 5:18am 13 responses Add your response

A former retail hi-fi salesman in Manhattan, John DeVore established DeVore Fidelity as a serious company at the end of 2000. As far as the monkey business goes, John told me that there are anthropologists and primatologists in his family. Does that mean zookeepers? Thank Darwin I didn't monkey more, DeVore.

The DeVore Fidelity gibbon Super Nine speakers are a 2.5-way design, featuring two, 7" paper woofers and a .75" treated textile tweeter that was originally used in their flagship gibbon X ($15,890/pair). At just 37" tall and 8.5" wide, they are not very large speakers, and placement is a bit easier than their brethren Orangutan models.

This Gibbon 3XL is the smallest model in the range and the only standmount. It also costs £3,000, give or take a fiver, which seems rather expensive for a compact two way stand-mount, though.

At 12.5"H x 6.5" W x 9.5" D, the Gibbon 3s were not exactly huge; they just sounded that way. They were manufactured and assembled in DeVore's Brooklyn-based factory and available in several beautiful hardwood veneers. My personal pair were finished in a light cherry and had a wonderful grain throughout.

Devore or Harbeths to replace my ESL63s? I'm on the last stages of a speaker quest that has been quite difficult. For the last year I've had ESL 63s in a smallish room (14'8 x 11'10). I've got them to work extremely well for small scale ensembles, particularly jazz, and they also sound great with electronic music.
