James, Artison or Goldenear Soundbars?


Moving into a new house and my concession to my wife is that my Wilson Benesch Discoverys will have to move to my home office and we'll a soundbar in the family room.  I didn't care for the sound of the Sony/Samsung/LG/etc. soundbars and looking for something will sound decent.  I've heard the Goldenear soundbar and liked it, but wondering if anyone either owns or has listened to the James or Artison soundbars and might be able to comment on them.  Thanks!

James and Artison are both great performers. Truly top-notch gear. James offers several sizes, even larger models with 5.25" woofers, multiple tweeter-arrays, etc. One thing James offers is custom built speakers/soundbars etc that will fit your TV exactly, in any finish or color you choose. You just furnish your dealer your TV model # and they'll make anything you want.  If you don't like their standard black aluminum chassis, fine. Request american walnut. You like the aluminum, but want it shot in Ferrari red, that's fine too. 

Artison doesnt go that far. They have their sound bars, stock sizes, but that just offer a custom grille that will fit your TV exactly. The soundbar can be shorter than your TV is wide, but the grille will be the proper width to give a clean finished product. 

Dont forget to to look at both mfr's inwall subwoofer offerings, as well. In addition to those, James also has some serious "Powerpipe" built-in bandpass subwoofers that are truly hidden. 
Yes, Scottsdale.  I'm a James dealer so I'll pm you my number in case you have any further questions, you can contact me.
