Aerial Acoustics 10T vs Talon Khorus


I plan on buying some used speakers to replace my Tekton Double impact, which will be sold @ auction on another site (Reserve Met). I have been looking and researching replacement speakers for several months now. Today, or for now, i have narrowed it down to the 2 speakers mentioned above. The Aerial Acoustics 10T are perfect like new condition and are the latest or last version or iteration. made. They are a beautiful Rosewood finish with the most up to date components for that Model (10T).

The Talon Khorus X look older and have had the crossovers updated ...etc

Another vote for the Aerials.  The Talons were said to measure very poorly and hence were never reviewed in publications that provided measurements.  Plus, as mentioned earlier, they’re outta business so good luck if you blow a driver.  I think the choice is crystal clear. 

I view Aerial 10Ts as one of the classic speakers of our time and u can’t go wrong as long as you have the power to drive them, which apparently you do.  Enjoy!!!
