A star is born.... Stereophile review of the Vimberg Mino


Boy did we get a birthday surprise, we recently took on the Vimberg line after being blown away by the Vimberg Tonda D at Axpona.

We have ordered the Amea monitors, and we working on getting the Tonda D later in the year.

People who are looking at a great pair of floorstanding loudspeakers and are looking at the usual contenders, Wilson, Magico, Rockport should absolutely check out the new Vimbergs.

The latest Stereophile review was a complete rave and we agreeded with Mr. Atkinson. In our opinion the Vimberg’s are one of the most exciting new lines of loudspeakers to appear on the market in recent years.

How many people have heard the Vimbergs at Axpona and were blown away by them?

Is it just a coincidence that whenever you pick up a new product line it becomes the new best thing since sliced bread? I notice you're not a JBL Synthesis dealer, so of course you don't mention the Everest DD67000. That speaker offers far better dynamics and scale to the sound then two 8 inch drivers ever could.
I noticed that Vimberg is actually a subsiddary of Tidal. Indeed, the speakers look almost like Tidal, just a step down. As if Tidal offered smaller versions of their big speakers for half price.
I read the review in stereophile. A couple of things stood out: the review raved about the ceramic drivers, and 2: $8k for the diamond tweeters.
These guys aren’t the 1st manufacturer to use ceramic drivers and the speakers I have heard with ceramic drivers were harsh and sterile. If you like ceramic, go pick up a 15 year old Usher AC10 for $2000.
$8k for a diamond tweeter pair? Crazy!! I would put up an Usher DMD tweeter up against it any day and the usher DMD costs $1000 a pair.  
I don’t think they’d over priced per se. Since I am enamoured with brands like Wilson, with their Alexia 2 model costing $58,000 as well as being one of my dream “end game” speakers, it would be hypocritical of me to suggest that these new speakers are over priced.

However I think a lot of these speakers on the low end of speaker manufacture offerings that are priced 8-20k and that are using small drivers are not the best use of your money. I just feel like there’s much, much more value if you double your budget and get something higher end. Like instead of the Vinberg, get Tidal.

this is just a wild theory in my part, but maybe Vinberg only exists as to not “cheapen” the tidal brand by offering “value oriented” speakers. They look exactly like smaller tidal speakers...
@audiotroy....Unfortunately, your ’open’ reads like and basically is an advert. I haven’t heard the speakers; at this point, your ’announcement’ here would incite a preference in me not to.

If I had 20~30K$ to drop at this time, I’d rather get a new trailer to replace the one stolen from me and my business. With the balance, I’d replace the truck we use to pull it around....

"Don’t waste your money on a new pair of speakers, you get more mileage from a new pair of sneakers..." Billy Joel’s advice, which still has a basic practicality that I can appreciate;....

I’m not inferring that they’re bad speakers....I’m just not interested in them or the way you’ve chosen to intro them.

Buy an ad, like a normal dealer.
It's just a bad look to so shamelessly use an A'gon post to hype a product you happen to sell...these guys just don't learn and I'm surprised they're allowed to put this stuff in here...or do the monitors know this and allow a little grave to be dug...hmmm...from the first time these guys posted to now it hasn't ever been anything but lame.
