Hello Tbone, While I respect the rights of others to offer an opinion I would like to offer mine. Don't listen to Phill. The Eidolon in IMHO is a GREAT transducer. No it's not perfect but no speaker will ever be. I compared it to speakers costing up to 3 times as much and overall for my room, taste in music, and the priorites I listen for in reproduced music it did more things right than anything I've compared it to. Yes there are other great speakers that others might prefer, but to call the Eidolons junk is just absurd. What's my reference? Now at the age of 42 I've been a professional musician for thirty years and have been around acoustic instruments literally everyday of my life since the age of six. Please don't listen to me or anybody else, try to go out and listen for yourself and let your ears be the judge. Good luck, Tom
Some of the biggest audio places carry..
Stores that are ultra high end like Goodwins Audio And Overture Audio and Progressive Audio and many others seem to carry Avalon and Spectral, They seem to prefer it to all the Krells and Levinson and Pass and Conrad-Johnson And Audio Research, which more of these stores also carry. They all of coarse carry MIT. I think that when you get into ultra high end it becomes more a factor of buying as a system. And I think Avalon/Spectral/MIT are some of the best sound money can buy. Anyone agree? Spectral gear is very analytical, but when their hooked to a laid back Avalon, and "smoothed" out by MIT, their the most detailed sound out there
