Mission,

If you do a little research, it appears that Avalon considers the Indra to be a "little" Isis. Apparently the Indra was so good that it forced an update to the Eidolon (The Time). Anecdotal evidence in several reviews and posts online suggests that the Indra made the Eidolon seem a little dated sounding. The Indra has the new Isis crossover design as well as other Isis features and by all accounts is more holographic than the Eidolon (my opinion as well.)

I could have purchased the Eidolons (used), but I simply thought the Indris were better all around.
I used to own diamond. I d suggest stretch a little for vision or diamond. Indra is too limited in bass. It is a very little Isis with truncation at both ends. Time is more like a small Isis
I've also owned the Diamond and I tired the Indra. The Indra is no Diamond or baby Isis, trust me. If your in a small room maybe but it is still very limited on the bass and volume side. I also thought it was a bit light sounding. I also don't like the Ceramic tweeter sounds.

IMO the Indra gets a bit to much hype on these threads. I wasn't overly impressed with the speaker given it's price. The other thing to consider is the Indra is a pretty small speaker and is very very light and easy to tip over. IT might be the lightest $20,000 speaker made. You should really listen for yourself at this price point.

If your buying used beware of the cracking ceramic tweeter and midrange. It's more common then you think.
