Anyone have any experience w/ Usher AC-10's?...


I'm going to demo these speakers within the next week and was wondering if any has anyone on Audiogon has experience or comments regarding Usher speakers, in particular the AC-10? These speakers use Accuton ceramic drivers. Any comments on these drivers would be appreciated as well. Ushers are manufactured in Taiwan.... hmmmmmmmm!

I haven't heard the AC-10 yet, but they look really sharp. I'm also going to be listening to some Von Schweikerts including the 5's. Here is a look at the AC-10's. http://www.usheraudio.com/speaker-ac10.html

Thanks,

I agree with Blueswan on being a bit forward, almost "In your face". I found with the ceramic speakers to me they were hard almost harsh sounding. I also auditioned the CP 8571 in Usher. I put this on my "Good Possiblity List".
No Ceramic in that model. The Von Schweikerts I was impressed overall but I do not know the model we were auditioning. I still think about the Usher 8571 but I now am hot on the JM Labs Mezzo's.
I don't know where you are located but there is a dealer in Ann Arbor Mich. on the Ushers that is offering some major discounts off the list price.
That my 2 cents worth,
Good Luck and enjoy the music.
