Changes in my life, new system, need new speakers

@justinrphillips , Well, if you're not in that big a hurry I'll let you know how the soft dome tweeter in the Atalante 3 sounds in about 2 weeks. I put my order in this last weekend. From what I understand practically the entire shipment destined for No. America is spoken for and they'll ship out the day they arrive. 

Like you, I want to keep the detail, air and ambience but try out a soft dome tweeter and that new mid-woofer (foam base, felt inner layer, basalt coating) to see if I can get more of a natural warmth than with my present set up. 

None of the drivers are off the shelf and designed by Daniel Emonts, who worked at Altec-Lansing, Focal-JM Lab, and Dynaudio where he was senior R&D engineer.

By the way, the image of the crossover above is for the 3-way so here's what it looks like for the 2-way,

That's about as simple as gets using top drawer components. As you can tell, I'm pretty jazzed about this and can't wait to hear them. 

All the best,
Nonoise

@nonoise I have to say that is a simple but elegant looking speaker.  The price is not crazy and within budget.  May not be easy to source in the states but I will very much await your feedback on it.  Seems to check all the boxes. 

@justinrphillips , Actually, they’re easy to get ahold of. You can try here,

or at tone imports @ mac.com

All the best,

@nonoise  Thanks for that link!  I am looking forward to your feedback on the speakers!

I was going to wait before posting on this but these Revival Audio Atalante 3 speakers are everything the reviews say (not much out there yet) and more. Right out of the box they sound fantastic and I was told to just keep playing them for a week and see how much better they get.

Everyone’s all agaga over Andrew Jones (and for good reason) but Daniel Emonts is no slouch with speakers as he’s been at it for over 30 years. At Dynaudio, he was the senior engineer and the Esotar, Evoke, Contour series as well as the Special 40s are his design.

At Focal-JMLab, he designed the Electra Be2 and Utopia EM series, to name a few. He also worked at Altec-Lansing. This guy’s been around.

These speaker are just flat out musical and beautifully made. There’s a reviewer over at YouTube who said his $7K Dynaudios made him cry as he listened to them. If he finds out these go for $3,499, he’ll bawl his head off.

I’ll start a new thread in a week or two on these after they break in. Hope you haven’t bought anything yet. 😄

All the best,
Nonoise
