Information about new Sierra-1 and Towers?

I am still feeling the results from that "porker" pizza, of which six adult men were unable to finish...

How tall is that prototype tower?

How tall is that prototype tower?

I think it is around 42" give or take an inch or so.

Ok, I'm ready for someone to give us the in depth review, comparisons, etc.

We also heard the Sierra NrT, but it looks like the Sierra-1 with a black colored waveguide.

And? How did it sound, particularly in comparison to the standard Sierra-1?

The midrange is a bit more forward/fleshed out, with a bit more detail. Highs are crisper and more distinct.

It was good, though.

Most definitely

I also find them cleaner with better transparency -- sharper with clearly defined and more prominent "attack". Things like string plucks on acoustic guitars and the shimmer and sizzle of cymbals are more realistic. It is certainly not a night and day difference as the tweeter in the standard Sierra-1 is excellent, but for those who want that additional detail and clarity and who seek that next-level performance, I feel this tweeter will get you there.

Hi David,

Care to share your thoughts a bit on what you heard?

I recall you also preferred the Sierra-1 NrT compared to the stock Sierra-1 (as did everyone else), do you remember what you heard? Many inquiring minds want your feedback.
