Usher Model Question


I was looking on Ushers site because I heard a while back that they were going to release a monitor in their Dancer series. I did find a monitor (CD777 ll). Upon further research I noticed that it must be the companies main site and not the U.S. site. Is this the new monitor, or is simply a model that never made it to the states and never will? I think it looks stunning, and if it sounds anywhere near as good as it looks....

I noticed on the U.S. site they had an announcement that they would be showing a new model from the Dancer series, the BE-718 at the Home Entertainment Show May 11th, in New York.

Any info on either of these products?

I am no longer an Usher dealer so have nothing at all to gain with posting on this thread but I can shed some light.
The new stand mount BE-718 speaker is the brainchild if Joseph D' Appolito. It was based on the 718 model which was one of my favorite Usher speakers. He has been working on this one for a while now. It started out as a personal endeavor from what I recall and the results exceeded even his expectations.
I beleive it uses only the BE tweeter and the original Usher manufacturered woofer but I do not know for sure.
