Clean, powerful, precise, with a few little nagging issues

Details: Two 6Ts in the front, 6C in the center, Bravus 12D rock crusher, and four 5DBs on the back and sides, hooked to a Samsung 67-inch LED, driven by an Onkyo SR806 at about 130 watts per channel, sitting in a 20'x20' carpeted room with an 8' ceiling.
Comments: Woof! This is an amazing sound system that performs exactly as I expected it to. Regardless of the source, it has clarity, punch and nuance, depending on what's called for. The soundstage is very wide. You'll hear things down in the mix of your favorite DVDs and CDs that you've never heard before, which is a good thing. And after a few months of use, the system absolutely bloomed, and gained more depth, response, nuance and power on everything from Beethoven to Green Day. I would not hesitate to recommend the Aperion product, staff or overall experience to anyone.
However, there were a few issues along the way. The 12D that came with the group was defective, and was obviously a returned item that somehow made it into my package. One of the hanging brackets for the 5DBs was inferior. The screws shipped with the brackets did not fit into the back of the 5 DBs. The SPL meter shipped with the unit was defective. But in all cases, the Aperiion staff was helpful and solved all these issues quickly.
Regarding the Onkyo (which I did not purchase from Aperion), be careful. The unit performs beautifully, but I had to replace the whole HDMI board less than two weeks after purchasing it. It was done under warranty, but the technician said that Onkyo was aware of the problem, but was shipping the units to market anyway.
Overall, Aperion's great customer service overcame the nagging little issues and their products are great. I cannot imagine ever owning a better sound system and I would not hesitate to recommend Aperion to anyone looking for what I believe is the ultimate sub-$10,000 home audio system. |
EnjoytheMusic.com review - October 2008 - Featuring the 6T
| Comments: |
"Anyway, on first listen and directly comparing the 6T's to the older 633T's I am immediately struck by how much more detailed the 6T's are. It's not just detail for details sake, these are simply more refined sounding, more natural and far less congested. That's not to say the 633T's were a bad sounding speaker by any stretch because they aren't. It's just that Aperion has taken the 6T's to a new level that firmly resides in the audiophile realm. In my mind, this is pretty amazing considering the 6T's list at just under $1400 clams."

Secrets of Home Theater & HiFi Review of the 6T-DB Hybrid XD - February 2009
| Comments: |
"Offering higher quality sound than other speakers I have heard for the same price, and a build quality that is superior to anything I have seen among their competitors, this is a speaker setup I would have no hesitation recommending to someone that was looking for either a full surround system, or a pair of stereo speakers. With Aperions wonderful 30 day trial you would have no risk to give them a try as well."

| Comments: |
“At A Glance: Three-way center for superior dialogue intelligibility. Awesome room-filling surrounds. Classy good looks.”
“So here’s another synergistic, the-whole-is-greater-than-the-sum-of-its-parts speaker system. Although you’ll have to buy it sight unseen (sound unheard?), I’m confident you won’t be disappointed in the good fit.”

Audioholics Review of the Intimus 6T-DB Hybrid XD - March 2009
| Comments: |
Performance Rating: 4.5 out of 5
Value: 5 out of 5
“The bottom line is that the Aperion Audio Intimus 6T-DB Hybrid XD system is one of those systems you'll get hooked on quickly. There's simply no way to miss how well they mesh together into a cohesive system and how well they handle lots of output without compressing the top end or losing control over the bottom frequencies. I wonder how well the system would do with two subs - I suspect that would be an upgrade many users might want to consider for even better bass integration.”
“This is a well-rounded system that is sure to please for both music and movies. At just over $3700 for a complete 5.1 system that doesn't really skimp on anything, this is not only a good-sounding system - it's a bargain.”
- Clint DeBoer - Audioholics.com, March 2009

SonicFlare Review of the 6T-DB Hybrid XD – June 2009
| Comments: |
“This is a great value play for music and movies. I have not seen a better-built, better-looking package than this for under $4000. The Aperion system plays with power, composure and coherence -- they excel at all important parameters for soundtracks.”
“If movies are the primary use with some music listening as well, the Intimus 6T – DB Hybrid XD package is a home run. I recommended it to my friend Marty for his new home theater – he’s the very happy guy there in the front row.”
- Robert Learner – SonicFlare.com, June 2009

Dorothy was right, there's no place like home.
