Rives Audio purchases Talon Loudspeaker Co.

Well, I just had a look at Mr.Rives system, Can we expect him to change his Martin logans for some Tylers at least in his system?

Cardani: I think you meant Talon rather than Tyler. I own Talon Hawks in for my office and a Talon Thunderbird subwoofer is in the reference system. I do need to reference that in my system. I've owned those for quite some time, long before this transaction. The Talon's are one of the few speakers I would ever consider replacing electrostics with--as I do love their transparancy. The Talon's also offer far better dynamics and power handling. So in time it may happen, but there are more important clients right now other than myself. Kind of like the cobblers son having worn out shoes. I was the last to do acoustical treatment to the room, It may be a while before I do anything with my own speakers.

Mr Rives:
Yes sorry i meant Talon not Tyler. BTW very nice system , I was just wandering why no Talon,s there. Best wishes and sucsess with your new projects and company.

As a current talon product owner (ravens, khites, roc sub), I'll be interested to learn about what type of service and products will be availabe to us.

The current product listing is on the website at www.talonspeakers.com. We are developing some new products currently. We are also trying to find out from users, such as yourself, if there is a demand for crossover upgrades. The one that seems to have the most demand is the Khorus. If there is a demand we intend to make those available. Also, the dealer network is being put in process. They will be posted on the site in a few months. Currently, there are no authorized dealers for this speaker line--as it was purchased less than a week ago. They all have to apply through Rives Audio/Talon sales for a dealership at this point.

We plan to serve the Talon users, both old and new, very well with the same high level of service Rives Audio is known for--now that Talon is a Rives Audio company.
