To REALLY test your sub though. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...05718?v=glance 16 hz fundamental :emoji_thumbsup: Just be very careful you don't damage something, like your sub or your walls or your dog.:D
RyanJE It's mainly HT But I also listen to music SACD/DVD-A/DTS too. Fairly nuetral sounding. I have mine running off of a HK AVR 225. Most HK's are on the warm side I've been told. I think they are clean and clear. My receiver crossover is fixed at 100 Hz So I played around for awhile with the...
I have the 522's L/R and the VACC in the center with the 522SS Dipoles/Bipoles in back and the S-12 Sub. All in a cherry finish. Hooked with Cobalt cables (L/R) and Monster wire (freebie) to an HK AVR 225. Any other questions I'll be happy to answer.
Lee, I understand your hesitancy on buying "Internet" brand speakers. As Ryan suggested, Aperion allows you to try their speakers out in your own home with no sales tax or shipping charges. Over the last 2 years I've bought many things from them and I've not returned anything. I really like...
Joe, If you think $90 is a lot, just keep looking. (Audioquest,Kimber,Crystalcable,Siltech...)I personally never thought I'd pay that much. But I went ahead and bought some of those Cobalt cables and well, I was immediately impressed. At the time, I could afford a small little luxury item like...
Bruce, I think you've received some very good advise here. May I recommend that you visit www.Aperionaudio.com and look over their line. They have some floorstanders with built in powered subs as well as a some surrounds, a couple center speakers and some dipole/bipoles too. They've also...
Aperions most likely will never be described as WARM I wouldn't say they are BRIGHT! either. I've heard them described as "FORWARD" And I think that probably fits best. Detailed and clear.

Jose, What's your definition of "airy"? I think some people might say they're bright. I would consider them detailed. Most people consider the H/K to be warm, so it seems to match well with the 522's
I'd call them clean without sounding to bright. Imaging is solid and detailed. I've only had them less than 2 weeks but there's no way these babys are going back. I mostly have used them for movies so far and their detail is amazing. Although, I've recently hooked up my turntable again after...
Aperion does indeed allow you to return for free if you don't like their speaker after 30 days. Also there is no shipping or sales tax. A 10 year transferrable warrenty and 3 year warrenty on their amps. Very good customer service and simply "Good People" over there. www.aperionaudio.com
Robert, I have a complete 5.1 set of Aperions all running smoothly off a Harmon Kardon 225 AVR It's rated at 55 watts per channel which is plenty to drive my Aperions. You can always go to www.aperionaudio.com and use their forum to ask questions too.
Scott, I will chime in for Aperion. I bought their S-12 Sub last Feb. And just bought their 522D L/R and their VACC center speaker along with their dipole/bipole 522SS surround speakers. I highly recommend them. Their customer service is beyond reproach and I like the way the speakers sound as...
Mike, I think that many of the brands you mentioned are good quality speakers. As most people here will tell you. "Listen for yourself" At some point it comes down to preference and budget. Personally I've been shopping for speakers for a year now, and after listening to many and reading...
Oh, Sorry. I meant "Are you only selling the sub?" I have the S-12 myself. (love it) I'm just lining up to get the rest of the 5.1 system. (Santa disapoints me)
JoeyR, As has been suggested, You might want to try internet direct. Allow me to suggest www.aperionaudio.com As most posters will agree that speakers should be heard in the home that they are going to be used in. Aperion gets good reviews ands offer free shipping (both ways) and 30 day...
