Celestion Ditton 88

Unbelievable, majestic, super rare, amazing sound. Maybe one of the most desirable and certainly rarest English vintage speakers on the planet! If you see a pair for sale (good luck with that!) don't even think about it - just BUY THEM!

Bonsoir,

Je ne suis pas connaisseur des enceintes. Des Dittons 88 s'accorderaient au pr ampli Quad 303 et au ampli Quad 405 ?

Merci

19/20 was the appreciation on the French "revue du son". After 12 years of using these Celestion Ditton 88 speakers with my nice Sansui amplifier I did not find better balance and dynamics. These loudspeakers can be very smooth or very hard - depends on the music, they are really transparant. They sound better if separated from the floor by a good device. They can be use in classic pop jazz music without any difficulty and are always a pleasure to listen to. A Loudspeaker too large for most installations but with no compromise on quality. If you plan to by one second hand, take note that they were built as a matched pair of cabinets because the 4 woofers were balanced precisely to prevent phase distortion. Only small fault, depending on the place they are positioned in a room, mid sound can seem a little harsh on some violin.
