Talon Audio Khorus???

Once you get past the long break-in, these speakers are truly remarkable. It just takes so damn long to break them in. And they do not sound good until they are broken in. After that, there is nothing I've heard as good, and I have also owned many great speakers.

Jim I see where Oliver at Delve Audio has these as part of his "high end" recommended system (#3), must be very efficient because he is powering them with 12w SET amp. Delve has them for $12,600 a pair, way beyond my price range. I also saw at stereotimes.com in new review of Ortho Spectrum A.R. that Celment Perry has Talon Khorus speakers he is auditioning in his system, so review may be coming. Here is website for Khorus for full description and pictures: http://www.talonaudio.com/khorus.htm

see the review at www.stereotimes.com . the editor notes the Khorus takes 400 hours to break in! but after that he claims they are state-of-the-art with no competition, price no object. he also rates the ROC sub . he is also driving them with dual EVo amps . I've seen a number of people matching the Talons with the EVo. I plan to follow the same strategy, but with a Khite/ROC combination.

Let's see.. talon uses an eminence guitar woofer. The mid driver is average, the tweeter is a good unit. The wood is nice. The price is a rip-off. I found the sound to be bloaty and colored. The reviewer at stereotimes who did the review is going to work for Talon... Put it all together and you have rip-off prices, mediocre quality and great marketing tactics.. Look around.. there is better out there foe much less Fred

Read the other threads about the Talon. You'll see that this last response from Fred_lane is full of it.
