Aerial 8B
Hi I know this is an old thread but I have to chime in.
I have a pair of Aerial 8 B in Santos Rosewood, They were built for the owner of Audioquest. I bought them from him, They were internally wired with Audioquest Kilimanjaro and they sound amazing, I hope you still have your pair I had mine for over a decade and I can't part with them. The 8B's like lots of power, they really shine with 200 plus watts per channel. I have mine with Rouge Audio 99 Super Magnum Preamp, Rouge Audio Ares Phono, both units with NOS tubes and Anthem Statement P5 amp. The sound is heavenly to say the least, this will be the speaker that I will keep till the end, no point in trading them. I have heard lots of other speakers at dealers and none have move me to the point of trading my Aerials. P.S. You can call them and upgrade yours to 8B if you like. PMC |

Welcome to the forum, PMC!
I also love my Aerial Acoustic 8B's. Mine are powered by McIntosh MC501's and it is an excellent pairing. I have listened to a pair of 7T's on several occasions and they do not disappoint.

7t's
They are fab speakers. I bought them over BM803's,Oly 3 and some Vienna Acoustics something ? I rocked out with Robert Gordon / Chis Spedding and followed with some Pentangle (English Folk)till honey came home and I had to turn it down.

I know I'm late to the party but I am so happy with my 7T's I had to chime in. They are in a home theater dedicated room but I honestly use them 70% of the time for 2 channel. Marantz av8802-Mcintosh mc252-Mit shotgun-7T. I also run 2 Martin Logan Depth i with them. I am blown away by how easily the convey the recording space or live venue where the recording took place. Just for reference, I'm 56 and got my first component system 42 years ago. Michael Kelly is the man.

You can never be to late to join the party, especially when it concerns Aerial speakers. Congrats on your 7T's! What a great choice you have made! Post a photo or two of your room if you get a chance and welcome to AA! Last edited by trek737; 04-23-2016 at 06:58 PM. |
