Hi Ash,
Midrange is 7in.
Price is 110,000 in paint and 125,000 in wood.
They only plan to make 6-8 pairs of wood a year because of the difficulty due to size and shape.
I hope to have them bye sometime in mid to Late feb.
Robert

Hi,
I have heard them and they are totally on another planet than Isis.
The finest speaker Neil Patel has ever designed.(I have not heard the Tesseract)
They might look like a Isis on steroids but don't let that fool you they are totally different inside and the sound is to die for.

Regards Robert

Hi,
Price is 110,000 for paint,125,000 for standard wood and 140,000 for preimium wood.
After you hear them you will not think the price is out of line,believe me.
The system I heard them in was:
Lamm LL1
Lamm ML3
Lamm LP1
Walker Black Diamond V
Koetsu Coralstone Diamond
Elrod Diamond cabling.
Incredible!

Hi Robert, would it be possible for you to expand a little more on the major areas of improvement over the Isis? I suspect they are a lot more transparent. Are the microdynamics improved? Does the extra height impact the ideal listening distance? Look forward to more updates from you. Many thanks

Hello Terry, is it possible for you to share your thoughts on the SAGA's sound and how it compares to the ISIS? I am guessing you are using them with Spectral amps and MIT cables? Any feedback you can share would be appreciated. Thanks
