forgot to mention the R6-0 (6 channel 125W amp) also as part of our initial stock and yes the monitors come with the matching Usher stands.

UK retail is always higher than US retail. Well, almost.

The Usher's are here
if any of you are near our vicinity, do drop in to give the 8571's a listen.
They are OUTSTANDING!

Pricing to be out soon

Hi Sridhar,
That was a great session yesterday.
I was totally impressed with the tiny dancers (be 718) and the elder brother the 8571.
The tiny dancer is a fast, detailed and thoroughly musical speaker. Transparent across the band. Sweet detailed highs through the beryllium tweeter has spoiled me already.
The bass was tight and detailed without any overhang.
The 8571 was terrific too. I have never heard such a big speaker sounding so composed but dynamic in a medium sized room. It does everything the tiny dancer does but with added scale. I can imagine how it will entertain setup in a large room.

Hi
Yes, great you could stop by. Actually there was one gem that you didnt listen to at all that day, in fact we both missed. If you thought the Be-718s were good, wait till you hear the one that we missed (I listened to it later). The 520 intro priced between 15K and 23.5K depending on sheilding/finish

VAT extra.

cheers

Is this the one ?

Usher Audio > Usher Series Loudspeaker > S-520

Stereophile: Usher Audio Technology S-520 loudspeaker

Interesting.........

odyssey · #17 29th April 2008, 12:58 PM

Yes, thats the one. The S stands for Shielded and you get the 520 without that too.
Ofcourse it does not match the performance of the Be-718 or the X718 but for that price...

cheers

Hats off to you sir, that's excellent pricing. I can't wait to hear the 520s in Mumbai.

Hi Folks,

I am one of the lucky ones to pick up one from Sridhar, the CP-6311, a true beauty & the beast

I will come back on my experience with this new lover

cheers

Hey Bernard,
That is a good choice. Very nice speakers. Are you in Bangalore ?
What amp are you using ?

Vinny.
