Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOne

Robdker, that was my first thought when I first heard the prototypes, but it certainly was true that they sounded great.

I have a recent experience of using expensive electronic on inexpensive speakers. I sold my Tidals in late Spring and had only the LSA1 Statement speakers to listen to. These are just under $2200 per pair. Originally, I bought them although I had no idea where I was going to use them. Later we bought a summer home with a very small bedroom that became by summer listening room. The LSA1 Statements were perfect.

I merely removed the Tidals and put the LSAs and their stands in those places. My BMC amps, dac/pre, and phono stage along with my other H-Cat and Exemplar XP-2 preamp are worth at least ten times as much as the speakers. Of course, I wished I could get my new BMC speakers or had held off selling the Tidals longer, but nevertheless, I really enjoyed what I was hearing.

Perhaps we put too much money into our speakers to gain so little at the top and bottom ends.

At any rate, I look forward to hearing the Evolutions at the RMAF or CES. Their birth has been long and painful.

Jtinn, why did you decide to outsource production? Hearing that was a tad disappointing.

Are the drivers truly custom or are they modded stock drivers? If they are modded drivers, what exactly was modded?

First let me say only the MICRO SERIES is and will be made overseas. All of our other models are manufactured in San Diego and always will be.

Sorry to say, but answering your first question is not something I care to share.

The drivers are manufactured by us and the only parts that are not are the diaphragm for our tweeter which is made by Mundorf, and our cone, which is made for us.

I hope you get a chance to hear it, I would love to hear what you think of it.

Will the production version be at the RMAF?

Any news about when these speakers might be available to buy or to audition?
