I exchanged some mails with Lucien at Avalon and confirmed to me that the release will be happening shortly, without any specific date, I will patiently wait.

Visually very striking, alien-like. I was told Keith Johnson advised on the Isis; what about this one?

I am a huge fan of Avalon designs and find them to be the most easthetically pleasing high end speaker around. However, to me these are off the mark. Appear to be Inspired by star wars or a batman movie, and I totally don't get the pointy top. Like two klansmen staring you in the face..... I'll have to pass on these one .

To be fair, I find few if any very large speakers overly attractive looking, including my very own MM3's (giant telephone receiver) and Wilson (stack of boxes). Martin Logan statements in light wood are quite pretty though.

Having seen a few illustrations which I am not at liberty to share just yet and that photo doesn't show how striking it is from the side. I find them really interesting. I have to audition these wonders. I just whish they could make a completelly passive version with an outboard active crossover instead of an internal bass amplifier.

I love the looks of those speakers...
