Anyone hear or own Volti Audio Vittora speakers?

Volti will be showing at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, assuming central Colorado hasn't washed away by then. Room 1102.

I agree with what Audiodude1aol stated above. I heard them Sunday at CAF and imaging was pretty mediocre in that there was a center image and then everything else was glued to each speaker. They could've improved things by bringing the speakers in a bit to create a realistic sound stage. Tonally though, I liked what I heard but I'm pretty forgiving of systems having no real low bass.

I also heard them at CAF and was a little underwhelmed. I thought they were too far apart and sounded like two distinct sources. The lack of any deep bass was also a little disconcerting. I would love to hear them in my own room since the rooms there were less than great. That said, I'd take whatever anyone has to say, including me, with a grain of salt. The cabinets were absolutely stunning though. Hell, I'd be tempted to buy a pair for that reason alone.

I haven't heard the Volti's per se, but I have heard a friend's Klipshorns that have been upgraded to the Volti midrange and tweeter horn and drivers and a new 15" woofer in the Klipsh cabinet. So in effect it is a slightly larger Volti with parts manufactured by Volti.

They are far better than the Klipshorns, sounding so un-horn like. They actually image like a very good cone or paneland sound recessed in their soundstage, not in your face like a typical horn. Very nice, even, warm, transparent and extended. Overall I was extremely impressed.

If you can hear them you definitely should. There is something special going on there, for sure.

Thank you Vinnie. I'm happy to hear you had a chance to hear them in show conditions and they sounded great, so I am trying to imagine what they would sound like in a properly set up listening room. I am very interested in these horns. Thank you Joeinid for your comments. If you do get a chance to hear them I would like to hear your thoughts.

A friend of mine and I are highly interested. The build quality looks outstanding and show reports have been extremely positive. They look like Klipsch done right. Any user reports would be most appreciated.

I heard them at CAF this past summer - I didn't have a lot to time because I had to get back to my exhibit room, but I thought the Vittora's sounded outstanding! They had it all - dynamics, delicacy, presence, depth...

They were also built like fine pieces of furniture - beautiful craftsmanship. They are not inexpensive, but compared to a lot of rooms with speakers costing more and sometimes A LOT more, the Vittora's sounding much more engaging for me. Definitely try to give them an audition.

Note - I have NO affiliation with Volti Audio. I didn't even get a chance to say hi to the owner - he was busy talking to potential customers. 'm just an mfgr. that got to hear their room at CAF and really enjoyed what I heard.
