Rockport Aquila vs Altair

I am also in Europe and I would like to take this Rockport threads to say that I interest in buying a pair of Speakers.
Altair weighs more than 250kg per unit How to move the adjustment difficult?
What is your choice resonable value for money between two pair of loudspeakers to be little different to me you say "NO Same League?. Rockport Aquila or Aerial 20T V2.

Thank you everybody.

Hello.
My current configuration, Such as audio amplifier Vitus SS 101, preamplifier
Vitus SL - 101, the source I tested a Linn Klimax DS, pappy watt speakers wilson 5.1.

If I were in your shoes, and you were really serious about these speakers, I would go visit the factory in Maine and listen to these speakers under ideal conditions.

Maine is beautiful in the early Fall, and they have excellent lobsters. If it has been a hot summer in Italy, then Maine makes for a cool getaway.

The Altair demands a huge room that is very well suited to 2 channel audio. I would think the Aquila would sound better in a moderate-sized room than the Altair.

You could also go to Goodwin's, but I think the frequent moving of equipment leads to a less than ideal situation. I also don't care for the Boulder amplifiers.

Rockport is expensive in the US. I can only imagine how much it is in Europe.

Also Ciro, I know that the Vitus amps are a lot more powerful than their rated 50wpc in Class A and 100wpc in Class AB, but I would definitely ask Andy if that is enough power to drive the Aquilas or the Altairs with ease, as both speakers do require a good amount of clean power. Good luck.

Ciro...i remember reading that Jeff Fritz (editor/reviewer at Ultra Audio) used the Vitus SS-101 when he reviewed the Altairs to good effect. I just checked the review (http://www.ultraaudio.com/twbas/twbas_20071001.htm) so maybe there is no issue with the Vitus driving the Altairs (or the Aquilas I guess) so maybe my point before is not an issue for you to worry about.
