Legacy Audio AERIS: RMAF/listening impressions?


I made a trip to Legacy this past week to hear this speaker in a non-show environment which would also afford more time to listen and hear music that I took with me. I don't see alot in the way of RMAF postings here as yet and would like to hear people's impressions of this speaker as I thought it an amazing speaker with huge potential. I've started a section on my system thread for anyone that wants to add material or please put your thoughts and impressions here. Thanks!

francisgr: your VTLs with all that power will have no issue driving the AERIS; all of Legacy speakers are easy loads to drive being highly efficient. I know guys who believe it or not have used low-wattage SET amps to drive Focus 20/20, etc...with great results but I would advocate something with a bit more horsepower for the reason audiotroy mentioned regarding dynamics and bass control. That stated, again, your VTLs will serve you very well in this regard as will others (Manley, Ayon, Wall Audio, etc...). Several of us have not just heard AERIS, we’ve owned them over varying to long periods of time. You are looking at a great speaker!!!

Cobraman: Great to hear from you again! Hope all is well with you!

FYI all, there is another thread which has come up regarding AERIS and amplification. Will be interesting to see the parallels...

Hi people. Thank you for your opinions and comments. I've never doubted about my amps driving the lovely and amazing Aeris. What crosses my mind is just the fact of having such amps wouldn't be any waste of power. After all it's 340w @ 5 ohms for a 98dB of efficiency. But anyway, I won't get rid of
Good call.....I had a similar situation and never regretted keeping my more power amps with high damping factor.
