Anyone heard the Kaiser Kawero's?


My friend is trying to compare the Wilson Max 3's to the Kaiser's. He heard the Wilson's and has been told to hear the Kaiser's, apparently about the same price.
Anyone hear the Kaisers? Opinions.

I have not heard the Kaiser but your question made me take a look at their web site.

If no one at Audiogon has input you can email the factory for the dealers. Even if there is no one local, the cost to (fly) to have a listen is small compared to the price of Wilson Maxx 3 or Kaiser.

Good luck.
Not yet but a friend of mine is a dealer. Contact Rick Brown of HiFI One in Carlsbad, California.

I heard them at RMAF 2 years ago. Unfortunately they were in a echo chamber of a room. It had the worst echo I have ever heard in a audition. I would love to hear them under different circumstances.

They look like they need a lot of space behind them. There are 2 large woofers on the back. At RMAF 2008 they were in a very large room and a good 20 ft from the back wall. I just took a look at their website and it looks like the speakers in the picture look like they are at least 6 or 7 ft from the back wall. If your friend can accomodate that then I think they are worth a listen.

Hi Sean, my friend has a smallish room...appx 15ftX12ft with a vault ceiling. He tried the Max 3's in this room and IMHO they overwhelmed the room a little. I suggested a smaller speaker, which is why he is considering the Kaisers. BTW, my friend lives in S.Africa and it's not easy for him to travel. So, anyone else have any opinions on the Kaisers?
If your friend likes the Wilson sound I would recommend the Sophia's for that size room. He might get away with the Sasha too. If he wants deeper bass he could add a sub or two. Its easier to dial in the bass with a sub in that small of a room.

I don't think the Kaiser's will work in that room. Maybe someone has tried it and will chime in.
