What's up with Onix Rockets? Just heard about them


I just bought Paradigm 100's and the CC. Now I'm reading that Rockets are better for a lot less money. What do you guys know? Should I be worried?

I havent heard em...but there are quite a few smaller, esoteric speaker makers that offer tremendous value and superior sonics...they do take some time to "sniff out" though...good luck...one is Green Mountain AUdio...which their entry level monitor..the Europa...simply shames the Studio 40 in my estimation....
its all how they sound to you, not what a person says on the net.
if you like what you got dont worry, its all subjective
I read about but haven't heard them. They have a quite loyal following. They are sold internet direct only. There is a site called audioenvy.com were owners of product from several speaker and sub companies that aren't readily availible in b&m store can register to open their home to fellow enthuisists to hear these products. I saw a thread somewhere that there are four print publication reviews on Rockets coming out in the near future.
The Onix Rockets are the successor line to the highly acclaimed Swans Diva line of speakers. The Divas (notably the Diva 6.1) got a lot of favorable press and reviews for their performance and price points. Developed a large following too. Due to certain legalities the Diva was redesigned and redistributed. The Rockets look similar but specs are different along with the new tweeter design (acclaimed Vifa tweeter) and a nicer look overall.
Swans/Divas are still availible from The Audio Insider their previous distributer AV123 has its own line now which is Onix. The Onix line is Rockets and Refs with Stratas and a couple other lines I can't remember on the way.
