Just went to the Avalon website and saw an intro for the new Eidolon Diamond. Anyone have anymore info - price, shipping date, listening impressions(if its been heard),etc.
Follow Ups:
The Ediolon Diamond will cost 33,995$, which is actually lower than I expected since the new tweeters are 2800$ each.
The best ever?? I guess that depends on what you like!!
Personally I found it hard to sleep after having heared about them.
The 100khz tweeter must do wonders for SACD if what people are saying about supertweeter are right but I have not heared one yet.
As fare as I know Accuton are planing a diamond version of the midrangedriver. Bet we will se that in a future upgrade of the Eidolon Diamond if it the same size as 3.5" used in it now.Regards

I am about to buy an Avalon eidolon or opus. Should I buy an opus now then upgrade to diamond 2-3 years later (if I can afford them and need them) or buy the eidolon now and upgrade just the tweeters (is it possible?). Or should I just wait and buy the diamond when it becomes available. When will it become available?Cpark
I just checked www.avalonacoustics.com and didn't see the notice. My first inkling of the existence of this model was a dealer ad in the new Stereophile I saw at the newsstand, since my subscription copy hasn't arrived yet. I assume this will use the new Accuton "Diamond" tweeter, which is listed at dealer Dillon Acoustics as being retail $2800 EACH, so the speaker could be expected to be VERY expensive, certainly way out of MY league, anyway.
