Aragon and Acurus brands being revived


I was looking on the Klipsch website today to check forum threads about Aragon products. Klipsch has posted a notice there that in April both Aragon and Acurus brands had been sold to a start up company called Indy Audio Labs. The company was formed by 2 long time Klipsch engineers who wanted Aragon and Acurus revived. They are looking to continue the Mondial legacy of great value and really good sounding gear and expect new product lines to be out some time in 2010. All service and support will now be handled thru them. The website is at wwwdotindyaudiolabsdotcom and provides more detailed information. I posted this in another thread but thought more people would see it in a thread of its own. This is indeed good news and I am interested to see what IAL will put out as far as new product.

I have been in touch with Indy Audio Labs on and off since January 2010 and last touched base with them in late December. They mentioned that they have been delayed due to a number of issues including the economy and component availability.

They hope to introduce the Acurus and Aragon amps in early 2011 and the first planned processor later this year, and also mentioned they have new information and hope to put it up on their web site this winter.

A couple of thoughts: Given the economy and related factors, itÂ’s been a slow-go. I agree with Kennyt that trying to revive this brand (or any brand) requires some serious investment. I also hope, along with Camino3x2, that the delay means they are wanting to release products that live up the their heritage.

I wish them the best and hope they don't release too soon a la Emotiva or not at all like Outlaw.
I saw these guys @ CEDIA in September and the new Aragon amps look SICK! Supposedly they used the identical amp design (from Dan D'Agostino of Krell) and just updated the power supplies to meet current trends in energy star efficiency.

Should be interesting and lots of bang for the buck.

Thanks for that info. It will be interesting to read if any of their products make it into any of the 2011 CES show reports.
I don't know if they are showing @ CES but I'll be there so if they are their I should see them.
so any word on these things yet? has anyone heard these yet or are they even out yet?
