Legacy Audio AERIS: RMAF/listening impressions?

I'll have to catch up with some listening to the latest Vandys. I'd love to hear them side by side as well. The AERIS in exotic finish weighs in around that price point; the Whisper is a bit more than that but please check with Legacy for official pricing. I've updated my system pics again and continue to be very happy with what I'm hearing...

Zephyr, where do you live? Who's' your local dealer?

When I bought my Legacy 20/20s, then HDs, Victoria LEs, Silver Screen IIs then HDs, etc... I lived in Hartford CT but dealt with Music Direct in Chicago; they rep'ed Edge, Esoteric, Audioquest, Shunyata and Legacy at the time to working with them was better for me economically. When I moved to the Greenville SC the dealer network was reducing down in scope so I started to work directly with Legacy. The dealer I liked in Orange CT was a good source for Classe gear so I worked with them on the SSP-600 and CP-700 I wanted but MD helped me put together the rest of what I wanted as they offered those brands.

Cobraman, I read all the thread despite this has more than 3 years. And all the Legacy Speakers posts it concerns to me, beacuse I will upg my speakers to Aeris. You said on one of your posts that you are amazedthe way your VTL amps drive your Aeris. Which ones are they? This is very important to me because I also have VTL monoblocks on my audio system (MB-185 series II) and I'm wondering how would it be driving upper ranges by 340W in tetrode mode.

We are a Legacy displaying dealer and I think we can help. 

We have heard the Aeris and  can give you  some guidance, we will be getting our display pair later in the year, currently we have Focus models on display. 

My boss, Dave knows your VTL  MB 185 quite well, If you contact the store ask for Dave I am sure he can give you some good advice.. 

The MB 185 were terrific amps and other than the bigger models were a great sweet spot product from the golden age of VTL. 

They can easily power the Aeris, the Aeries are quite efficient all of Dudelestons  designs have an easy impedance curves, the major difference is that many of their conventional speakers require a lot of current to control those large woofers. In the case of the Aeris and Focux XD the internal amplifier drives the woofers so now you have an easy non reactive load .
