Have been searching for new speakers to replace my 14 year old Avalon Opus. Finally it has come down to Rockport Atria IIs and Wilson Yvette's.
I had the Rockports for a 3 week in home audition. The tweeters burned my ears off. So much, that I went to an ear specialist and had a hearing test. A little loss of high frequencys but at age 68, quite normal.
I have had the Yvette's for 4 days in home and cannot find faults.I expect to have the Yvette's for 2 weeks. As I tweak their position, They just get better.
My Pass 160.8s have no problem driving them. I think these will be my keepers.
