V,

It’s a news story. They have not sent out any yet for review.

The actual performance as a speaker is not reviewed, which seems to me to be a serious lack when evaluating if they will be able to compete.

Jimmy,

These will not improve that rig. Nice preamp.

I do not hear any reason to rethink the speakers in the system.

This is a super competitive market and I’m not sure dealers will push these speakers when they can sell a Rotel amplifier with something else from some of the brands mentioned. Rotel and Q Acoustics are a solid combination.

Rotel’s “Michi” products are stellar and a good value when you look at that segment of the market, but these feel very mid.
