    I know, I meant Romy who hates single-drive back loaded horns.

    Visit to Todd (sbnx) Avantgarde Trio G3 in Parker, Texas

    Kedar's lack of interest in Duos reminds me of Romy, who knows and cares about AG brand only for its trios in his forum and doesn't like duos and other 2-way horns at all, but interestingly, Romy's first speakers before his trios were Duos, Also, he very much hates single-drive back loaded horns...

    But in order to achieve the performance of Trios, you don't need to spend $250K to get better than Duos, There is another option that I would call it "Trio Lite", which consists of trios and two REL subwoofers instead of Spacehorns, and it puts you at the border of $100K ($91k+$9k), and as Trio...

    Visit to Todd (sbnx) Avantgarde Trio G3 in Parker, Texas

    The hORNS designer for Universum advises customers to choose a matte finish for the mid horn and a glossy finish for the tweeter horn for the best SQ. It seems that they recommended two types of finishes for two different wavelengths, mid and treble. Of course, the Universum uses the Le Cleac'h...

    Visit to Todd (sbnx) Avantgarde Trio G3 in Parker, Texas

    Hello Todd, Do you think that detecting the sonic differences on the recordings with inverted polarity is directly related to the level of transparency and resolving power of the entire system? And do you think that with a sonic microscopic speaker like Avantgarde plus the sheer accuracy of the...

    I guess you heard the trio G3 in the Singaporean dealer's location (hifi.com.sg), right?

    New Avantgarde Duo Mezzo G3

    I really like this new horn Blue/Grey color combination. BTW, if you have the active module (iTron) with the new Mezzo, it will be very interesting to compare it with Kondo Ongaku and tell us your opinion here.

    Todd's AG Trio G3 System -- it's about time

    The point is that, like Roy, he also used both input and the output of daisy-chain BNC sockets (on passive xover part), for signal grounding with QKore unit. And the dedicated ground lug on the iTron module is apparently for the chassis grounding, which I guess Todd used CAD grounding in this...

    Todd's AG Trio G3 System -- it's about time

    Hello nirodha, No, it is related to the German distributor, I just put it as an example of small space and vertical Spacehorns. I hope I will get AG G3 in the future, either a duo mezzo or trios.

    Todd's AG Trio G3 System -- it's about time

    I think that if you upgrade to G3, you will no longer have problem of the large size of the previous gen Basshorns, because if you choose a pair of single-drive type Spacehorns and place them vertically, their depth will be even less than the REL subs (492mm vs 539mm), and they will easily fit...

    Todd's AG Trio G3 System -- it's about time

    Todd's AG Trio G3 System -- it's about time

    From Purist Audio(FB) interviews with Jérôme Andre, Avantgarde's international sales manager. But of course I doubt that he is still in this job, because he's the same person (according to the photos sent by Uwiik) who admitted at the recent AG show in Indonesia that Kondo is much better than...

    Todd's AG Trio G3 System -- it's about time

    The new Mezzo will be released soon. Also, Avantgarde has said about a secret project that it will be unveiled a few months after the new mezzo, I guess this project could be about a new iTron exclusive preamp which is also of the current drive type.
