Use headphones for best playback results!

I listened to them at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver CO earlier this month. IMHO, my best sounding speaker of the show. John Devore didn't have an exact price yet, but he said it may be in the $80k range.

$80K seems to be a bit steep for <$10K worth of parts. Perhaps labor in NYC is higher than I recall. That said, a pair of 0/93 or 0/96 Devores are very high on my 'next speakers' list.

Does anyone know when these will be available for listening at dealer locations? Even though they are expensive, if my listening room could accommodate the space needs of these speakers and they end up sounding as great as I suspect they will, I would be very, very tempted.

Common Wave in LA has the only pair produced thus far, so I'm told.
I listened to them with Nagra gear during a debut event in which John was present.
Was expecting more for $80K+....however, it was not the ideal time to audition them.

I'm going to pull the trigger on a pair of 96's this week.

Paltomare - Thanks for letting me know about the pair at Common Wave in LA. I hope you enjoy your 96’s! (Pretty sure you will!). Happy Listening!

All The Best,

Steven
