anyone using piega speakers?


I just pulled the trigger on a pair of tc 50`s. I`ve not herd nor seen them. Not the smartest thing to do, I know,but they were calling my name. I will be using them in the bedroom with a manley stingray and a MD nu vista cdp. I think the tubes and the ribbons should sound sweet. These are odd speakers-check them out if you have not seen them. They make the case from a single piece of al in the Audi factory. Anyone the has these speaker, please comment-good or bad. Thanks

I'm a bit late to the party, but I have the C-8 Ltds and find the top end to be some of the most naturally extended airy and delicate highs I've heard. I run them with Manley NeoClassic 250 Tube amps, a pass X1 pre and have cardas golden ref powercords sprinkled throughout. They speakers have almost no toe-in and I haven't heard another pair of speakers I'd rather own. I am really really sensitive to harsh highs so I'm really surprised by the bright diagnosis. I mean I have a hard time listening to JM Labs tweeters, or those revelator tweeters, or those usher speakers, and almost all ribon tweeters because of my aversion to abrasive highs. I don't think anyone would consider my system bright by any means, though with some wrong toe-in and some solid state amps and maybe bad silver interconnects I could manage it if I tried....

In any case how are the TC 50's?
