AUDIENCE 24 IC VS.?


I'm about to purchase these .I have done several searches and have read all the reviews.I've been using them for 2 weeks and love the sound.Just wondering if any one has opinons about them after using them or comparing them to other ICs.Before I take the plunge and spend 500$ on them .
Thank You

Thanks for your input everybody.Like i said I'm very happy with my system.CARY805ae/REGAp9/RUBY3h/CARY302/SOLILOQUY sm23a/AU 24 speakercable 1 meter length/EVS passive attenuators&direct connection to amp.just wanted thoughts regarding the AU 24 IC ....i think i'll give the acoustic zen/nordost vahalla/stealth pgs a listen......
Thank You !....."Nietzchelover"...great info.Your impressions are consistent with mine.
the au-24's are very good and even better when used with the audience power cord...
