Wish I could have heard these speakers in person. Some of my favorite speakers builds are built with AMT's and ribbon tweeters.

Great job covering CEDIA Todd. Awesome job and loved watching your youtube uploads.

It's interesting how they are packaged with the amps. While the design would likely be right down my alley, given what I like in my room, it would be hard for me to give up my McIntosh amps for a pro-amp look. Sorry, looks are somewhat important to me. And we still don't know how much they cost, right?

Definitely a pro audio looking speaker with their grilles... and they would get bleeding loud with only a few watts of power.

It's neat that you can choose the dispersion width. This could be important if you are basically a one-man room wanting to concentrate on one listening position.

I wish you could hear them too... would enjoy getting your take.

These sounded effortless to me. You really got the sense that the cleanliness of sound is limitless. I also dig the fact that they are so proprietary - from the amplification right up to the speaker design. Anyone bringing Alcons into their home theater is getting a unique experience!

Thanks for the CEDIA comment - I appreciate it! They're made for you and our community!!

I agree, Sonnie. These are utilitarian to the core. I'd imagine that the vast majority of installs would find these speakers hidden behind acoustically transparent screens and walls. You'd likely never see them.

I guess, also, it would come in handy for extremely large rooms where the speakers have a wide spread across the front soundstage.
