The speakers were unveiled at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver, CO. The Verus Grand family is a high-end complement to the company’s Aperion Intimus line of home theater speakers.
“The goal for the Aperion Verus Grand line was to create an accurate, uncolored, lifelike experience,” says Ken Humphreys, Aperion’s lead speaker engineer and a 25-year veteran of speaker system and component design for the audio industry’s most respected brands. “To do that, our team built the entire speaker system from the bottom up, engineering each component for maximum sonic impact while keeping the cost in reach of most home theater audio buffs.”
“A key part of the solution is our new Axially Stabilized Radiator tweeter, which takes the burden of reproducing upper-mid frequencies off the mid-range driver,” Humphreys adds. “That allows each driver to do the job it does best. The result is wider dispersion for an expanded soundstage and lower distortion to boost clarity.”
Aperion Verus Grand includes:
Pricing for the new Aperion Verus Grand line of home theater speakers is $1,798 per pair for the Verus Grand Tower; $699 for the Verus Grand Center; and $598 per pair for the Verus Grand Bookshelf. Pre-orders are now being accepted, and the system will ship on October 30, 2010. A 10-year limited warranty covers all defects in material and workmanship. The product also comes with free shipping, free lifetime support and a 30-day in-home trial.

TCL X11L Review: Premium brands, watch out.
What makes the X11L especially interesting is the technology behind it. While much of the industry is racing toward RGB Mini-LED backlights, TCL went a completely different direction with what it calls Super Quantum Dot, or SQD. Rather than using separate red, green, and blue LEDs in the backlight, SQD sticks with a single-color LED backlight but pairs it with a new generation of quantum dot particles and an improved color filter. The result is wider color, higher (blinding) brightness, and a thinner panel than RGB Mini-LED can currently achieve. After weeks of living with this TV, I think TCL made the right call.

Hisense opens XR10 pre-orders with $1,700 off and an HT Saturn included
Hisense has been in the laser projector business for over a decade, and the XR10 is the company putting all of that experience into one package. The projector uses a pure RGB triple laser light source paired with Hisense’s LPU 3.0 Digital Laser Engine. The result is 6,000 lumens of brightness, which is enough to watch media in broad daylight.
