Anyone heard Rockport Technologies Mira Grand II

There's a fairly long Dagogo review you should check out.

I heard them extensively, but only with one set of electronics. Positioning them out into the room is important. The woofers are side-firing, so you need to have some flexibility in how you can position them.

They sounded great, the only weak point at all was that they seemed to need a fair bit of power to open up. I heard them with 100 watt SET tube amps. Could have been the electronics that were lacking in guts. Positives were that they were very controlled so that they could display layer upon layer of soundstage, and could present instruments that truly seemed real with a great recording.

Hope this helps - more specifics in your question would help me give you a better answer than "yup, I heard 'em."

I'm sure they are fabulous - all their stuff is. Dependng on the deal if there is a pair available, you should weigh that versus the new Avior, which is being released within the week from Rockport. They will be $29,500 per pair - all brand new honeycomb carbon drivers ((2) 9" front firing woofers with a 6" midrange and the same berrylium tweeter as the $97k Altair) . I heard them a few days ago and they are absolutly breathtking. The only speakers I ever heard that were better at any price were Rockports bigger speakers.

Soundcomponents, now i definitely want to hear the Avior.
I just saw some pics of them.
