Normally I write my own blog, but on a lazy day I just cut and paste. This time I am giving you a cut an paste of an email from Sandy Gross, founder of GoldenEar Technology. If you click on the page you can go directly to the review.

“Stereophile is one of the most discerning high-end audio magazines, and their reviewers among the most critical. When I received Bob Reina’s review of the Aon 2, (Stereophile – November 2013) I was as blown away by it as he was with the speaker! I found his introduction discussing his meeting with Saul Marantz very apropos, for as many of you know, Saul was both a good friend and mentor of mine.

As I started to go through the review today in order to pick out some of the best quotes, I realized just how difficult a task it was to choose, as the whole review is just one blockbuster rave after another. But I’ll try, beginning with…
“…as much detail as I’ve heard with much more expensive speakers” and, “the lower midrange had a warm richness that made it sound like a much larger speaker” and similarly,
“the Aon 2s low-end extension and naturalness through the mid bass also suggested a larger more expensive speaker”.
Of course getting into the specifics, Bob waxed eloquently that,
“The range from ppp to fff was breathtaking through the GoldenEars, and I was taken by the silky, uncolored male and female voices, which floated holographically over the orchestra during even the most demanding passages”.
He also loved the way,
“each note was surrounded by a delicate, airy envelope” and the way,“all transients were lightning fast without losing any of their delicate subtleties”.
He then raved that,
“the bass response was forceful” and “I could hear the skin of each drum resonate after each attack, but without any smearing”.
As I said, the raves for our little Aon 2 are just stupendous and go on and on and on. But you already knew how great the Aon 2 is, for music and of course home theater, when paired with our new SuperCenters.
