I believe we have some of the T2 speakers lined up, but Todd or Wayne can confirm. If we haven't, we will, and they are in the plans. Not sure when. It is possible we might get them for the evaluation as well.

I run a pair of Emotiva Airmotiv 6S powered monitors for my computer setup and they sound really really good. I can't ever imagine needing to upgrade them. If their other speakers sound as good as these monitors I imagine they will be a great purchase.

The Airmotiv seems to be getting a lot of positive press, so it will be interesting to see what Todd/Wayne thinks of them.

It appears that the Chane L7 are behind schedule again. It would be nice to see Chane's new line up against the Emotiva's!

I am about to give up on the Chane L7. Announced in 2014 and still waiting. I have had the a2.4 since Feb. this year and I am getting bummed about no speakers from them. The Airmotiv T2 just might be the answer I am looking for. But no reviews here yet.

I agreed with you. I've been waiting for the larger center speaker as well, but no update on that either.

I just started going to a private university so I can't afford to buy anything yet. If not I would of bought the T2's already.

Finding ANY Reviews on the T2 is hard. Lots of comments but to real reviews. BTW, I am extremely pleased with the A2.4 center. It replaced a matched NHT super center for clarity here. And it sounds great with the NHT super twos it is playing with. I guess that's why I have waited so long.. Just want some real reviews, and not that sing-song stuff out of stereophile. Although all my NHT gear is 20+ years old....hehehehe

Well the slow boat finally arrived. Un-boxed yesterday and all is fine. Moved the NHT's to surround and listening to Blue Oyster Cult right now. Very HAPPY. Might have some pictures of our lame movie/stereo zone. Movie soon. I need a beer....

Listening to Ferrante and Teicher...Piano hits from my father's stuff. Outstanding for here. Big sound like my Heathkits circa '81.

Unexpectedly, the WAF factor was high. A lot higher then moving the NHT's to surround duty. "Where will the Christmas tree sit?"......$%!# Moving the sub so the left surround can get further in the corner. She has not noticed the Polks have been moved from surround to wide position. Now to find somewhere to stash the shipping boxes.
