I would audition the Aerials before I purchased them - I was disappointed by many other speakers (trying to be nice here) before I returned to the 3.6 - They allow me to really enjoy the music, without having to worry about the "next best thing", or another brand...
Thiel CS3.6 and Aerial 10T Comparison
I currently have the Thiels and have been really happy with them however, a while back I had heard the Aerials and was very impressed by them. I'm thinkng about replacing the Thiels with the Aerials. Does anybody have experience with both of these speakers and could advise if this is a good switch or not?
