Avalon Indra vs Sonus Faber Cremona M

I have heard the Eidolon and the Cremona M and I liked the Cremona M better. The Cremona M fixes everything the old Cremona couldn't do or lacked. Avalon's are so damn picky on room and location it could or could not work when you get them home.

Thanks Mtdking.

I did not expect an answer such as that! I will take it into account. I will demo the Indra's at home compared to the Sonus Faber's. If it is merely a question of sonic presentation, I will probably keep the Sonus'.

I second Mtdking's comments. I just got rid of my Avalon Eidolons after 3 weeks because when I got them home I discovered they are very particular to room placement. I found (among other things) they need to sit out from the rear wall at least 5-6 feet. Any closer and they close up. However once I found their spot they were special. Just didn't work for my living room which is the listening area. I've heard the Indras and they are better however I bet just as finicky. If you have a flexible room and you are willing to treat it, the Indras will be great. Funny but your dealers comments sound like the dealer in Denver. He would say you could consider changing components in your system but why bother, what you really need to do is switch to Avalon speakers.

Thanks for the heads up. The dealer is going to come to my house and demo the Indras so I can A B the cremona M with it.

I`ll let you guys know how it went.

You could always add a sub to the Cremona's to make them go deeper and improve the overall presentation with it.
