Anyone heard the Meadowlark Blue Herons ?

I have been researching speakers under $9K (or thereabouts) and the Meadowlark Blue Herons stand out as a possible contender. I have not heard them, and I realize the proof is in the listening, but I am curious if there are A'goners out there who have heard them and compared them to the best out there. Why isn't there more hype about them ? Are there any Blue Heron owners in the SF Bay Area ? I would like to audition these in a home setting. Thanks for your replies.

I have the Blue Heron's...used to have Heron-i.

These speakers are fabulous from top to bottom! They sound better than other brands that cost 2-3 times as much. They are a killer value.

I have no problems w/bass, though I am using 350 watt mono amps.

I too push primarily rock and some jazz music through mine.

Thanks for your responses. I have an ARC VT100 Mk II tube amp, 100 wpc. Do you think this will drive them adequately ?

My only tube experience is with pre amps, not power amps...personally, I would think you would be better off with the solid state equivalent of 250w/ch.

I second the motion for more power.

I have had all of the Meadowlarks including the new Blue Heron 2's that are on the way. Is Placerville close enough for you?
