Has anyone heard the Legacy Aeris?


I was curious if anyone has heard the new Legacy Aeris in a controlled space (showroom or home). I have played around with room correction and have always been pleasantly surprised as to the improvements it makes, even in a treated room, even with high-end speakers. TAS article last month was more a discussion of the technology rather than a review of their sound and performance. I am curious as to how they may stand up to the better $30k and below speakers.

I'll be hearing the Aeris is my system within 3-4 weeks as my build order is now in the queue; I'll let you all know once they arrive and are up and running. This will be one hell of a jump in the system based upon what I've heard to date and am very exciting about this upcoming change!
I've had the Aeris for a few months now and they have logged a large amount of hours; they continue to amaze me in a real home environment with a good system backing them. There is not a single disc I've thrown at them that they don't come out and impress with musicality, imaging, density and 3-D aspects of sound field and excitement and energy. They pressurize the room in ways I've never heard even at low and moderate volume levels. This is Duddleston's crowning achievement to date I am sure based upon what I am hearing. They are also the highest return on investment in the industry or at the very least, on a very short list of speakers that can claim that honor. Amazing speaker,...I urge anyone who can to check them out....send me in-mail on Audiogon with any questions (I'm not a dealer but will be very glad to help!).
Zephyr I know you are a big Aeris fan but every time I hear them I go why don't my Whisper sound like this until I listen to them then I know why.
The Whispers are paired with a pair of Extremes and have their own DSP powered with an S100.
The difference is like comparing a Maserati and a Bentley.
The Bentley is much smoother.lol
As for the Sony's and Aeris its like comparing the Mase to a Honda Civic
They are both great speakers...I take it from your comment that you prefer the Whispers, please confirm. In either case, the listener does not lose!
I've heard both speakers, they are both Phenomenal... Just depends on your taste in speakers and amplifiers. The Sony's are like 88db 4 ohm and the Aeris are like 95.5 4 ohm....
