WILL THE NEW 60,000 AVALON ISIS BE THE BEST YET?

Hi,
Good luck with the Iis. I owned a pair of the Osiris speakers for about 4 years, and they truly lacked the slam that you are describing. They were what my dealer characterized as "polite" and what I characterized as "boring". I currently have Dynaudio Temptations, but I am very intrigued by the new Avalons.

Funny thing,Strapper.I have always felt there was not enough offered from Avalon,to make me want to upgrade from my Avalon Ascents/Rel Stentor.Loved the Eidolons,but STILL not enough.

Well,now I have to take these ISIS very seriously,as they seem to really push the envelope.Glad you are happy.

BTW--They are SO gorgeous,I'd have little trouble convincing my wife to live with them.Only problem,I'm probably moving in two years(Won't have my dedicated room,then),but will have to carefully assess the size of anything new.

Also,glad to see you're running tubed amps.I have no problems w/SS(and have Rowland),but I can't see getting the best from the ISIS without a really powerful tube setup.I'm thinking I'd consider the VTL 400(300 wpc,in one chassis).What do you think?

Best of luck!
