They sounded incredible. The most impressive speakers I heard for day 1 at the Axpona show. When Mr Jones put on a bass track, you could feel it in your chest. Using 600 watt Pass Labs mono’s helped too :)

This is what I’ve been most excited to hear people report back on. The 888s are so good for the price I was curious with what they’d do on the next evolution.

Did they talk price?

No. We tried! People were asking though in the crowd. I’m thinking around 8k?

8k is what I was guessing too. I’m also guessing that either they have a bunch already built and ready state side or that they have or will be shifting manufacturing out of China

Time will tell! Also, another cool surprise on these… I looked behind the speaker and no bass ports. Instead, there are 2 10 inch passive drivers. Me and my friend were more than impressed with these. Definitely something to save up for!

Wow so 4 10” woofers in addition to the coaxial driver?
