If you have a dealer that is local I would encourage you to go listen to them. I auditioned the Blue Heron. If I remember correctly they start at 14,000 and go up depending on the finish you desire. I was speachless. The best speakers I have ever heard. They were matched up to top of the line VTL tube monoblocs. I didn't want to leave the shop. I told my buddy who was with me that I was glad I left the charge card home.
