Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Wanting to trade the Stratus Gold already eh? NT

I agree. In my case, i know i have a lousy listening environment in my summer house that isn't fixable and i think break-in would have improved the sound a lot, but how much? However, i wasn't willing to take the risk of putting down $1,000 unless i saw more reviews that could point out the strengths and weaknesses of these speakers, among which i was also worried about having to get on the upgrade path. The Audionotes always play well in their dealers' show rooms, and I heard the AZ-2's play a wide range of music.

Once a few things settle down with regard to my hearing problems (an operation) and my finances, I definitely plan to revisit them, if they are still available, but i think will end up with a UK mini or small monitor, proac, spendor, quad, etc. (I was actually intrigued by the US-made NSM speakers reviwed above and their tiny brothers).

I haven't given up on Audionote by any means, but i am not going to get on a substantial upgrade path for them. I love the sound of so many of the small monitors and the music comes first for me.
