They already sound better than the Dali Epicon 8's and retail for thousands less.

Outstanding & Beautiful,..Congratulations Ivan! Looking forward to detailed listening impressions as the Canton's get broken in!

Have you heard enough to have your order in for a pair of the large Canton Reference 1Ks yet?

The room and system looks great!

Mark... the K1's are more similar than different to the K3's. The only difference is the 2 bass drivers. I could easily justify the cost difference, but my customers wouldn't.

Congratulations again Ivan,...system and room look great! I saw you plan on adding Stillpoints to the Reference 3Ks(?),...sounds like a great plan!

Ivan - Given the number of systems you have and components you rotate through, you could easily do reviews for a living if you had the time.

And how about the Cantons with respect to the Aerials? It is remarkable
that both sets are almost the same height, I couldn't tell the difference
to be honest. Just on looks the Aerials look so damn imposing. I cannot
get over those looks, timeless, beautiful.

Sal... many folks are going to have a very hard time believing this. I already like the Canton K3's better than the Aerial 20T's.

The Canton's are much more relaxed, natural sounding, and forward. They throw a huge soundstage too. The 20T's sound like they are 10' behind the Canton's. If I didn't hear it myself, I wouldn't believe it. I still have not changed the position of the Canton's; frankly they sound amazing right where they are. I also haven't made any adjustments on the rear of the speakers either.

The K3's are on Stillpoints Ultra SS feet, but I have not adjusted/floated them yet. When you consider the K3's are literally half the retail of the 20T's it is astonishing.
