opinions regarding lithos speakers


hi
ever heard of indian made lithos speakers,I visited their website lithosindia.com and found out the site informative even to a laymam like me.Is it true that those speakers sound so beautiful as the company claims.If any of you out there owns or used or heard these speakers can you give your opinion about the performance of these speakers.

hi vadiraj
since you auditioned lithos speakers may i ask you why you have decided against buying them.i reside in chennai so it is not possible for me to go to mumbai just for hearing those speakers.do you feel the speakers are compromised in quality or are they overpriced.please give your reasons.of several models that they have which model did you like most.

Re: opinions regarding lithos speakers

hi,
they are really good speakers in terms of re-producing natural sound from your sources..
the price was a point and i did not have enough money to buy them during august. a pair of Noa and a subwoofer came to around 38K I suppose, dont recall exact amount..i was in mumbai for three months and when I shifted back to bangalore I wanted to buy them..
i will still be buying them at some point of time for sure..they are good speakers....
contact them and ask if they can arrange for a demo in chennai some time or ask them if they are participating any of the AV Expo..AV Expo is happening in Banagalore in Jan end or Feb I suppose

hi
I visited av max expo in december 06 at chennai expecting to see lithos but was disappointed as they did not participate in it.I also contacted people at lithos for an audition at chennai but they asked me to come over to mumbai.I even suggested them to send their speakers for a review in avmax magazine...looks like they are not interested in marketing their products.

Re: opinions regarding lithos speakers

Hi redd,
I had bought an amplifier (onkyo SR 805) from US. I am planning to get the speaker set from India. I went to the Onkyo Showroom in chennai and found the klipsch speakers as good. But, wanted to find out the performance of Lithos as well.. Have you bought the lithos system?

Thumbs up Re: opinions regarding lithos speakers

Hi Everyone,

I have been using Lithos speaker for the past 7 years now and today, I upgraded to the latest Lithos speaker called - the KONTRA. - kontra .

i used a set of tower speakers of Lithos which were a limited edition of only 6 sets made.

I got the speakers in the morning and just cant stop listening to them. I am using NAD apm and CD player. The speakers cables and interconnects I am using are Sommer.

The combination is nothing short of BRILLIANT. I have heard many speakers over time, but this one just sounds beautiful. the sound delivery is tight bass, spatial sound and clear reproduction.

The desing itself is unique and imposing in my livng room. It forms the center of attraction in the room.

i would recommend anyone who is looking at buying a good high-end speaker system to buy the Kontra's. The price I paid is 1 lac for the pair. I have heard speakers that dont sound half as good priced at 3 lacs a pair.

great product 111

EDIT: Never Mind...I just saw replies to this q. from other members.

Shaun,
Would you happen to know the price of the Lithos Noa1's since you've recently bought a Lithos system?
Happy listening, by the way!

Re: opinions regarding lithos speakers

Thank you shaundubash, Finally an actual user of a Lithos speakers !! Please keep posting your impression of the speakers with different kinds of music.

I heard the Noa1 over 6 or 7 years ago in Rajiv's house. Rajiv actually tempted me to sit for over 2 hours continuously listening to music. What impressed me most was the complete lack of strain on the ears. And of course, the sheer volume of sound that was coming out of something that was so tiny. But what was most impressive was Rajiv's claim of Q-Balance was actually working.

Because of the size, I had immediately put the NOA1 in the league of sub/sat systems such as Bose. I should have taken it more seriously.

I am glad Rajiv is doing well. He sounded very knowledgeable and he deserves good success with what he is doing.

Cheers
