Tidal Akira

Has anyone here owned (or heard) them and if so what do you think of them especially in comparison to other high end loud speakers? Thanks.

Can be AXPONA. And since auditory memory is a bit junk take this with a grain of salt. It didn't sound anything revelatory to me and frankly you can do better for less in 2025 @smodtactical

I think I tread they need serious amps to sound good, something about the drivers being stiff and difficult to drive.

So it's not that they're particularly hard to drive but they're very demanding of upstream gear.
