Bruce, do you know how the Maxonics sound? There is a dealer not 20 miles from me. Runs these 100dB+ beauties w...Soulution amps!
Mark--Yes I heard one of the Units in the SibatechJP room at CES (2010) I think but not certain-it was CD and they played the Gary Karr and Organ track--very impressive and went nearly all the depth!.
They are fine Transducers but I've since heard the Atelier Rullit aero 8 full range FC's and thought they
being more cost friendly delivered as much as the Maxonic sonically--don't know if they are sold in your neck of the woods.
Seeing you have contact locally --I'd certainly check pricing and what they can do for a demo.
FC's have a sought of mesmerising quality that draws you into the Music--I have friends that won't have anything else for Speakers and I must admit some of the few sessions where one does not want make lame excuses for leaving early to feed the Dog!
-- tho Hmm-- Soulution Amps would not be first choice
with any FC's -just my opinion YVMV
Good luck,
BD
