| Review of Ascend Acoustics’ ELX Tower Speakers (released 2022) @baylinor What speakers did you have prior to the Ascend? | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k @grislybutter I’m not sure if there are improvements made to the speakers. I’m going to my dealer on Saturday and will ask. Regards Ron | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k @gordon I just called my dealer and holy cow you are right ! 38k for the Atria ii and 48k for the Avior ii! I love my Avior ii but how can Rockport increase that much in 2 years? Geez. | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k @gordon Will do. I agree with you 37 k is a lot ! You just can’t go up that much in two years. | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k @gordon I looked at the link. At the top it says 38k and at the bottom it says 26.5k. I think they made a mistake. I ordered my Avior ii speakers around Oct. 2021 and they were 39k then. I’ll bet you are correct about the Avior ii pricing now bu... | |
| IsoAcoustics Gaia Footers AND Townshend Seismic Podiums @blisshifi How about running a sweep with REW to see what the frequency response is? | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k @gordon The Rockport Atria ii speakers are $26,500. The Avior ii are around $40k. @brewerslaw I highly recommend an audition of the Avior ii. Good luck in your search ! | |
| Inexpensive streaming amplifier Check out Crutchfield. They should have some good options. | |
| High end speakers at low volume I can’t imagine rock music sounds good at low volume but maybe it can with horns. I suggest giving Rockport speakers an audition. Used Atria might be in your budget. Good luck! | |
| cheapest speaker made in the last 10 year that can beat any speaker made before 1970? I would say it’s the cabinet technology that has improved the most and made the music better. Along with better parts too. | |
| Going back to headphone ? Welcome back! You were missed by all. Regards. | |
| Integrating speakers into contemporary decor - can WAF ever be overcome? +1 noromance! If that isn’t an option go with some high end stand mounts to match your high end decor. The Borresen M1 should do nicely! Good luck your gonna need it | |
| $50k - $80k Budget…Opinions please. I second the room as first priority. After that Rockport speakers and Boulder amps! Good luck and have fun! | |
| Munich High End Show Report 2023 ! @rick2000 Does Rockport have a room there ? Which model speaker did they bring if so? | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated I’d also say it depends on the level of integrated you are looking at. My Boulder 866 drives my Rockport Avior ii speakers extremely well. Good luck ! |
