I had the Audio Physic Avantis for a time, the ones with the glass-coated cabinet panels. They were good in most ways but the cabinets were noisier than should be expected in $9K/pair speakers. They also seemed to have a null somewhere in the upper bass freqs. Aside from those issues they were excellent and attractive speakers. Maybe not so great a value though, because I actually prefer the Revel Performa3 F206, and now I prefer a pair of modded Tekton Lore Reference Bes to the Revels.
My journey has led me to realize just how much value there is in the DIY realm. If you’re handy with woodwork or know someone who is, you can build numerous speakers rivaling $20K/pair commercial models for <$5K.
