Stereophile Names Intimus 6T to ‘Recommended Components’ List for Loudspeaker Systems – April 2010

Comments:	Stereophile Magazine publishes an annual list of ‘Recommended Components’ where the “…Stereophile editors reveal the industry’s best audio gear.” The Intimus 6T is a component of this 5.1 system. “The ‘sexy’ Intimus 6T has a hefty front-ported cabinet made of 1”-thick high-density fiberboard, and uses a 1” tweeter and a pair of 6.5” woofers. It lacked some high-frequency air and midrange ambience, but offered an impressive ‘ability to render low-level dynamic nuances in an organic fashion,’ said BJR...Sold factory-direct with a 30-day money-back guarantee and a 10-year warranty.” - Stereophile Magazine, April 2010 Review currently available at newsstands.

Audioholics Reviews the Bravus 10D Subwoofer – March 2010

Comments:	*The Aperion Bravus 10D is the “HD” component of this home theater speaker system.* Performance Rating: 4 out of 5 Value Rating: 4 out of 5 “The Aperion Bravus 10D integrates well with low to medium efficiency speakers and never sounds boomy. No matter how hard I drove it, it didn’t bottom out or falter. Aperion Audio has done their homework by employing good driver design in a small enclose that limits the maximum excursion the drivers can reach ensuring they won't bottom or stress when driven to maximum output. The Aperion Bravus 10D is an attractive, potent little subwoofer at a reasonable price. It certainly doesn't have the output and extension of its larger peers but that’s a tradeoff one must live with if they want a small box to better blend into their room décor. In that aspect the Bravus 10D is all aces. While the Bravus 10D has impressive output for its size, I'd recommend it for small to medium sized rooms (< 2500ft^3). I'd personally recommend saving your dollars to purchase a second 10D which if strategically placed in the room provide the output of a single larger subwoofer, with smoother bass response for your entire listening area. After hearing dual subwoofers properly set up in a theater room you will find you can never go back to a single subwoofer system. Given the diminutive size of the 10D, it would be very easy to place two of these in most family rooms without drawing much attention to them. There should be no excuses for NOT setting up dual subs in your theater room. Aperion Audio makes this very easy for you with their small, potent Bravus offerings.” - - Gene DellaSala, Audioholics, March 2010 Read Full Review

Audioholics Consumer Excellence Award - Bravus 10D – February 2010

Comments:	The Aperion Audio Bravus 10D Powered Subwoofer won the Audioholics “Consumer Excellence Award” 2009 for in the Compact Subwoofer category. “The Aperion Bravus 10D subwoofer completes the Home Theater system by providing accurate low frequency reproduction, ranging from smooth musical bass tones to the immersive low end rumble that many movie enthusiasts expect from a much larger enclosure. The Bravus 10D's design incorporates dual 10-inch custom aluminum drivers that enable the performance of a typical 12-inch driver and cabinet design in a much smaller package. The subwoofer’s easy to use EQ presets, and user customizable EQ settings, with a remote control, let the music and movie enthusiast adjust the settings to quickly make up for differences in the content without leaving the listening position. Given its size and value, a serious bass head can easily integrate 2 or 4 of the Bravus 10D subwoofers to ensure every seat in their theater room provides an equally good tactile experience.” - Gene DellaSala, Audioholics, February 2010 Read Full Review

Affordable$$Audio Reviews the Intimus 6T Tower Speaker – January 2010

Comments:	The Intimus 6T Tower is a component of the Intimus 6T Hybrid HD system. “…for those looking for a major flaw won’t find one for $1400 a pair. These towers are too well designed.” “The 6T’s sound easy and natural with any type of music. The most difficult of orchestral compositions didn’t strain the presentation. Nor the loudness of heavy rock cause the speakers sonics to turn to distortion. If your looking for a floor standing speaker under $2,000 that can play a wide range of music all day long the Aperion Intimus 6T’s await your audition.” - Dan Nielsen, Affordable$$Audio, January 2010 Read Full Review

Enjoy the Music.com “Best of 2009” Award for Loudspeakers – Intimus 6T Tower Speaker – October 2009

Comments:	The Intimus 6T Tower Speaker is a component of the Intimus 6T Hybrid HD system. “I like 'em... .a lot. They do loads of stuff very well. That slight dip in the midbass I heard was easily compensated for by running some tubes somewhere in your system in front of the 6T's. Then again, that statement could simply be written off as one of my personal preferences in how I enjoy my music served up. The Aperion 6T's provide loads of quick, tight bass providing your amplifier is up to the task. The midrange is remarkably clean for reasonably priced speaker and the highs are clean and well extended. Weighing in at just under $1400, the 6T's present a tremendous value not to mention, killer sound.” - Steven R. Rochlin, EnjoytheMusic.com, October 2009 Read Full Review

HomeTheaterReview.com Reviews the 6T Tower Speaker – August 2009

Comments:	The Intimus 6T is a component of this 5.1 system. “While $1,400 a pair loudspeakers are by no means cheap these days, the Intimus 6Ts are a relative bargain, considering you'll have to spend more than double their asking price to achieve even an incremental increase in performance. The Intimus 6T is Aperion's flagship speaker and if it proves to be too big or to costly for you, the company has numerous options that are more compact and budget-friendly, while incorporating the same drivers and technology, ensuring you'll be getting the same quality sound in a smaller package. If you have the room and the budget and are in the market for a solid home theater and audiophile speaker, take a good look at the Intimus 6T.” -Andrew Robinson, HomeTheaterReview.com, August 2009 Read Full Review

Enjoy the Music Budget Speaker Shootout Review of the 5B

Comments:	“First impressions of the Intimus 5B is that they are extraordinarily well built, and boast a fit & finish that would not be out of place on speakers four times their price.” “...they delivered enough detail to be lively, but weren't so ruthlessly revealing as to spoil it. Vocals were excellent across the board on the Aperions as Natalie Merchant sounded great on Tigerlily, as did Brian Johnson on Back in Black. Electric guitars had plenty of grit and impact. The 5Bs can rock!” - Clarke Robinson - enjoythemusic.com, May 2009 See the Full Shootout

Audioholics Consumer Excellence Award - 6T Tower Speaker - March 2009

Comments:	"The 6T tower speakers are the perfect choice for the customer that enjoys both music and movies. The ultimate in sonic excellence for medium and large rooms, the new Intimus 6T Tower Speaker offers flawless sound reproduction, tight bass, superior midrange, crisp highs and an absolutely enormous soundstage. The thick, furniture-grade cabinetry is easy on the eyes and minimizes resonance while our new custom 1” silk dome tweeter and redesigned dual 6.5” woven-fiberglass woofers deliver tight bass and exceptional midrange clarity." - Audioholics Consumer Excellence Award, March 2009 See all the awards

Audioholics Review of the Intimus 6T - March 2009

Comments:	Audioholics reviewed our Intimus 6T-DB Hybrid XD system and the Intimus 6T Tower Speaker is a component of that system. Here’s what Audioholics had to say specifically about the 6T in that review: “The 6T Tower Speakers are simply delicious to look at. With curved corners and an ultra-shiny piano black finish (Aperion calls it simply "High Gloss Black") this speaker looks more like a piece of furniture than a speaker...Unboxing the 6T Towers was almost a sexual experience. I say this not because of anything deviant, but simply because the speakers come in a felt covering that is tied loosely at the top of the cabinet. Once we had the speaker unboxed we untied the top and the velvet paused for a second, then slid down the speaker like a silk dress. A friend and I stood there with our mouths hanging open both thinking the same thing as we watched it fall. Then we both laughed and continued on.” “The central guitar break was absolutely like sitting in the control room during the session and you really got the sense that every bit of detail this recording had to offer was being faithfully reproduced by the Aperion 6T towers. In this song in particular, the soundstage was shown to be much wider than the room and the imaging of these speakers was above-par, with instruments able to be easily picked out with precision.” “The piano had a lot of midrange detail and the 6T's seemed to bring out a three-dimensional reverb that filled the room and gave serious depth to the soundstage.” - Clint DeBoer - Audioholics.com, March 2009 Read Full Review

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." - Scott Faller - Enjoythemusic.com, October 2008 Read Full Review
