Beware. I'm not saying they don't sound good, since I've never heard them. I do, however, know that the moderators at the Audio Asylum have been deleting the posts of someone, who has been posing under various names, and touting the speaker. Sounds very suspicious to me.
I've heard and owned many of the finest speakers the world has to offer but never in my 20 years have I heard anything remotly comparable the these. I've never heard imaging that made me feel as though I could walk into the sound stage this is the breakthrough like SACD that we needed you'll be surprised at what they can do in your house try them igonore the critic and use your years trust yourself and you'll see that what I say is true Ezra
Once you get past the long break-in, these speakers are truly remarkable. It just takes so damn long to break them in. And they do not sound good until they are broken in. After that, there is nothing I've heard as good, and I have also owned many great speakers.
Jim I see where Oliver at Delve Audio has these as part of his "high end" recommended system (#3), must be very efficient because he is powering them with 12w SET amp. Delve has them for $12,600 a pair, way beyond my price range. I also saw at stereotimes.com in new review of Ortho Spectrum A.R. that Celment Perry has Talon Khorus speakers he is auditioning in his system, so review may be coming. Here is website for Khorus for full description and pictures: http://www.talonaudio.com/khorus.htm
see the review at www.stereotimes.com . the editor notes the Khorus takes 400 hours to break in! but after that he claims they are state-of-the-art with no competition, price no object. he also rates the ROC sub . he is also driving them with dual EVo amps . I've seen a number of people matching the Talons with the EVo. I plan to follow the same strategy, but with a Khite/ROC combination.
