What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first? Rockport of course. Check out the reviews and comments on the forums. Universally praised as some of the best speakers made. Good luck ! | |

The Snob Appeal Premium Sorry about that. I get it now | |
The Snob Appeal Premium Hi @yogiboy My system is on my details page. Happy listening ! | |
The Snob Appeal Premium @pennfootball71 I heard the Aida at Axpona last year (22) and they were nice. A coincidence they were running Boulder amps as I have the 866 integrated powering my Aviors. I would be curious how a hybrid like you have would sound. Maybe some day. | |
The Snob Appeal Premium @pennfootball71 That is quite a few speakers you have heard. I listened to Sonus Fabre , Wilson DAW, Magico S5, B@W 801, but I liked the Rockport Avior ii the best. There might be some tweaks here and there but for the most part I am done. I wo... | |
The Snob Appeal Premium @pennfootball71 A wonderful system! I’ll bet it sounds great! What other speakers did you try ? Do you have a dedicated room as well? I felt that getting into this hobby at almost sixty I would just go for my end game from the start and not spen... | |
The Snob Appeal Premium @pennfootball71 please list your system. Curious minds want to know. | |

Help chosing an integated amp The Boulder 866 is a superb integrated. I highly recommend an audition. If you like it be sure to get the DAC option as it is fantastic. Good luck! | |
What happened to all the highend stereo shops @decathlon1991 What speakers are you using with your Boulder gear? | |
T+A DAC 200 or WEISS 501 It seems like some of the descriptions of the various DACs qualities (soundstage width, depth etc. ) are more likely to be determined by the room. How can a DAC affect these things? Thanks | |
Subs with room correction DSP? @traudio Contact Duke LeJeune at audiokinesis. He is an expert with subs and will give you the advise you need. You will be glad you did. | |
When are speakers considered Hi-Fi and not Mid-Fi??? Any speaker that needs modified to sound good right out of the box should be considered midfi at best. | |
Picking Speakers 20k-30k @creditingkarma Maybe the Atria and Avior were selling so good they thought they could bump the price way up and still have strong sales. I do love my Avior ii. Happy listening! |
