Has anyone heard the Legacy Aeris?

There is another thread on this topic that you can find by searching for the words Legacy or AERIS. I've heard them multiple times and am extremely impressed by what they bring to the table. Check out that thread and let me know if you have any other questions; you can shoot me an email through Audiogon and I'll be happy to give more detail on what I heard first hand on several different trips to Legacy.

Great speakers, value priced. Steromojo just did a nice review of them. I liked them more than Wilson at a recent show.

My current favorites are the Sony SS speakers. They are 10k versus $30k for the Legacies. Both have perfect tonal range across the spectrum. You can buy a lot of records or CDs with the 20k you will pocket.

I think you need to check your math. The Legacy Aeris is under 18K.

Shakey

They are under $18K, final price I'm told is based upon choice of finish, etc...but no matter how you slice it, given what I've heard in several listening sessions, they have mids and top-end that I don't think I've heard the equal of at many price points going much further up the scale. When you couple that with a resounding performance in the bass regions with attack, decay and incredible accuracy over a wide variety of music with no ear fatigue you wind up with a winning combination. The last time I heard a speaker I loved this much, the price point was several multiples of what the Aeris is advertised for...

I'll be hearing the Aeris is my system within 3-4 weeks as my build order is now in the queue; I'll let you all know once they arrive and are up and running. This will be one hell of a jump in the system based upon what I've heard to date and am very exciting about this upcoming change!
