Avanti I had my concerns with the Calibres for their price they are $5,500 plus a set of stands, which means $5,800.00 pretty close to the Signatures so originally we weren't intersted in flooring them.
After hearing them at the New York Audio Show, we were convinced.
The Calibre is a force unto itself. The biamped version is totally off the charts. If you consider a set of Calibres with the internal 750 watt amplifiers and a Wavelet processor which is also a preamp and a dac and you would have a fantastic compact system that is a two piece system that totally rocks.
All you would need would then be a streamer and viola a tiny Aeris.
This is a wonderful system for a reasonable price point, under $12k for an entire system that puts many more expensive setups to shame.
