Summary: I have owned and listened to lots
and lots of other speaker manufacture such as Martin
Logan Prodigy, Magnepan MG20, Piega C10 limited, B&W
801 Nautilus but non of these can compare to the Aurum
Cantus Supreme in term of detail and coherence. There is
a measure of air, openness and detail I have not quite
experienced with any other speaker under $20000 that is
not a fatiguing "hi-fi" kind of sound but relaxed with
refinement and control and altogether true to the music.
If you are an audiophile or music lover who has always
loved the special sound of electrostatics, ribbons and
similar speaker systems but despair at the lack of
dynamics, low bass or unacceptable union with dynamic
woofers in hybrid versions, then take heart, the Aurum
Cantus Supreme has solved the problem! It is not a
ribbon dipole but these unique ribbon drivers (G1) have
the best of what is so coveted with this technology and
they are married to fast proprietary woofers with
excellent lows, midbass and dynamics. The Supreme is
glorious music at its best, the kind of speaker that
makes you forget about audio, video, demo records,
high-end, home-theater, etc., and just sit back and
enjoy!
Strengths: Most seamlessly perfect
speaker,top to bottom without a sonic flaw to my ears.
Detail, coherence, air...
Weaknesses: Chinese speakers???
