Opinion of Avalon Speakers or Alternataives


I was looking at the Avalo, Usher and Kharma speakers. I now understand that Ushers are not in the same league as the Kharma. So how about the Avalon speakers? I also am looking at the Alon speakers.

Your comments are very much appreciated.

I heard all of these at CES in January. The Kharma 3.2s were incredible, but they were playing with $130k in associated equipment. The Eidolon Diamonds were very close in sound quality, running off $10k in Ayre equipment (in fact, Michael Fremer mentions that room as one of his favorites in the new Stereophile).

I heard the regular Eidolons and the Opus in other rooms, but they had plasma TVs stuffed between them, and as a consequence had NO depth. The Alon Lotus Elite Signatures were quite good, but not in the same league as the Avaolon Diamonds and Kharams -- but hey, they cost 1/4 to 1/3 as much!
