Acarian - Alon IV vs. Alon V mkII

I agree w/most of what's been said. IMHO the IV is a little bottom-heavy, and the V is much better balanced, and with slimmer dimensions, easier to place in most rooms. For a used speaker, they are definitely one of the better values available. The II is one of my favs for $700-800. Cheers,

I have Alon Mark V Type II and upgraded with the Circe woofers. They are much smoother and sweeter than the IV's which get a bit broad. However, I believe the IV's are better if you are multichannel. I have the V's for about 10 years and they still amaze me!

How did a man named Marchiotto(Correct spelling?), come up with the name "Alon by Acarian"?

I have one grill for Alon V MKII speakers that I no longer need and want to sell if anyone is interested. Contact me.
