Wilson Maxx3 vs Avalon Isis
Only Avalon can answer that question. They had to pick a woofer and it was the Eaton. I'm sure it has to do with speed because of the ceramic midrange is a very light weight and fast cone. Eaton also makes some of the best drivers. BTW all woofers... 
Wilson Maxx3 vs Avalon Isis
Try Boulder amp's and you will be in heaven. Avalon speakers don't work all that well with tube amps because the Ceramic midrange need a very high dampening factor to control it. I know the Lamm 2.1 is not a tube amp but it doesn't have the power ...

Try the RCA on the 1.2 it sounds better. 
Wilson Maxx3 vs Avalon Isis
Honestly if you want music get the Isis if you want Demo or shock Hi-Fi get the MAXXIII. It really is as simple as that. 
Avalon Eidolon Diamond or Aerial 20T v2.
Go listen side by side and report back...........Audiodreamer heard both side by side so ask him.

I was never sold on the Indra either. But I have never liked the Ceramic tweeter at all in any speaker. I have heard the Indra 3 times and I came away wanting more weight and backbone.

Avalon Eidolon Diamond or Aerial 20T v2.

Make sure you listen to the Diamonds and not the standard Eidolon or Visions. The Diamond is a very different speaker and you can see a very different price tag also. The Diamonds have more bass output plus it will go deeper. There Diamond tweeter... 
From Marten Coltrane to Avalon Isis, Hansen King??
The Avalon would be a improvement over what you have. The crossovers in the Avalons is what makes them so great. I went from Kharma Midi to Avalon Diamonds and it wasn't even close. The bass is also much cleaner with better definition. Avalon real...

Belles Ref amps work great on the 3A. 
With $20,000 in your hand, what speaker would you
Andy,I can tell you the Avalon Eidolon Diamonds are the best speaker I have ever heard and you know I have heard just about all of them. I heard your Maggies and they sound very good in your room but if you ever heard the Diamonds your jaw would h...

ARC REF 110 amp ohms
