Sigma Acoustics MAAT Vector XAC

Finally yesterday my new Orchestra 2.9 have started to sing! Now is time for fine positioning adjustment and heavy curtains installation..... but need to sit for a while to enjoy the new sound.

I'm trying to upload a image and reducing the size up to 500KB but I get anyway tthe message "file too big". May be the site is experiencing some issue?
 
Finally I managed to upload some pictures.
Already enjoyjng the limitless dynamycs, transients speed and really accurate timbre.
Awaiting to install the drapes and to listen to the changes, to better balance for sure.

What are your room and your setup dimensions? The tweeter dispersion must be great as no toe-in; at least in the pictures

The room is 6x4 meters, the distance from the back of loudspeakers to the rocky wall is 1,2 m, while center to center between tweeters is 2,3m.
But fine positioning adjustment is still going.
About the toe-in, yes, the AMT tweeter actually has a great horizontal dispersion and furthermore it's installed so that it can rotate on vertical axis to provide more fine adjustment if needed.

Looks Amazing!
 
I’ve just seen these and I guess your upcoming orchestra 2.9 will have the super tweeters integrated into the speakers like these?

So beautiful, actually I could easily have bought them but not the Maat if Aldo did this 3 years ago. You’re lucky to own them, fantastic stuff :)!

I’m very much looking forward to hearing them in Munich this year.

Speaker design is so "seen that" almost all the time, but I *really* like these.

Beautiful! Bet the sound matches the looks! Enjoy!
 
Can someone explain why this brand of multi cones spkrs can achieve 100dB+ efficiency, while the usual suspects all oblige a medium sized nuclear power station in one's living room?

Thank you! Indeed the sound quality is already impressive, even if I 'm currently dealing with the room acoustics in order to get the max possible performance, but I consider the room in final configuration only after the heavy curtains installation, and after that it will worth to seriously work on fine speakers positioning.

In terms if the efficiency measurements, they are reminiscent of the Göbel Audio speakers (Divin Marquis, Noblesse and Majestic) although the Sigma Acoustics are measurably more efficient. Perhaps the manufacturer uses a unique methodology to measure efficiency?

Also wish they were more readily available in North America. I would enjoy hearing them in person.
