I would have to agree with Avantgarde recommendation, (I’ve owned Duo Omega G2 for 10 years, and still have them)
every point that had been been made elsewhere in this thread is valid:
Given careful set up, They sound absolutely fabulous- transparent, no colorations, dynamic, great micro shadings, non fatiguing.
i use mines with an active crossover and a pair of JL Fathom 112 V2 subs.
Essentially, they are like an audio magnifying glass, you will hear every small change, you make in your system.
I'm sure Trios are even better.
the other very important aspect is- Avantgarde is one of the oldest, largest and best established contemporary horn speakers manufacturers in the world, therefore they have sufficient R&D budget to stay near the top of the game, great customer support and can guarantee worry free ownership, unlike other companies mentioned here, whose presence in the future market place is less certain.
