Avalon Eidolon Visions in the house


Upgraded from Thiel CS 2.4s (which I think are fantastic by the way). The Eidolon Visions just arrived today.......good lord. I know that this may be old news, but now I understand what the deal is with all the love these things get. Sounds like there is a damn mini version of whoever I'm listening to in the room with me. Full writeup to come.

I assume you meant "Audioguy3107" rather than "Andromedaaudio" in your post above. I share your sentiment - "Gocubs999" remarks describing the dealer's observations of the Indras vs the Visions are unhelpful and borderline (if not totally) useless. I always enjoy reading about someone pumped about a new purchase, and his/her eagerness to share their excitement. Congrats to Audioguy3107 on the new arrival.

No disrespect,but no way the lower models are better than the Eidolon Vision....Pleeeeease!

Btw,a nice upgrade is to remove the protective grill(leaving the damping material in place)around the drivers.I guarantee you will find more resolution and open sound.

I did this to my Avalons and a past friend's.To keep a nice look,I sprayed the damping material black,and cut the covering around the drivers.It was definitely an improvement,and "not" subtle.

Good luck
Sirspeedy,

I wouldn't be too quick to jump to that conclusion. If you do a search, there are a number of posters in other forums online who have heard both and believe the Indras are better.

Supposedly it is the result of the newer crossover technology used in the Isis.
OK,who knows?...Still,knowing the Avalon lineup pretty well,it would still be a BIG surprise,but nothing wrong with saving some cashola if it is true -:)
