Best New Loudspeakers under $5,000. Focal Aria 900

My uncle is in the pro audio field and goes to all the shows around the world. A hot hew speaker line to look out for is the New
Focal Aria 900 loudspeaker line that comes out in Oct -2013
Aluminum magnesium tweeter- wave guide,and new Flax,fiberglass sandwich Mid and Woofer drivers ,efficient90- 92db front and bottom ported. My uncle says a lot of high end sound for the buck.
He is usually spot on .he uses B&W 802 Diamond in his Studios.
He just gives his opinion a very natural open loudspeaker with solid Bass
That is his pick for best value for the dollar for 2013.

I guess that explains the 40%-off sale prices of several Focal speakers at MusicDirect--making way for the Aria line.

According to this article, they should come in at quite a bit less than $5K. The article says that the new flax-composite speaker cones provide most of the stiffness-to-weight advantage of Focal's W-cone at a much lower mfg. cost.
