Auditioning/Buying Rethm Trishna

[balu613]

I am currently residing in Bangalore and was wondering if I can audition the Rethm Trishna locally. Also, does anyone know if there is a substantial difference (in price) between buying it in India or the U.S.?

Thanks.

ARN Systems is the local rep, and you can see a post about this on the forum from Sridhar.

Absolute Phase (Bangalore) are the dealers for Rethm in India. I had a chance to hear a pair of Trishna's at their place last month.

AFAIK, the Trishnas are cheaper in India than in the US.

@GeorgeO, I think you are mixing up the two dealers - ARN and Absolute Phase.

I guess you are one of the first people to have heard the Trishna. How would you rate it next to your Sadhanaas?

Sorry, goofed up.

My initial impression was that these are very transparent speakers (even more than the Saadhanas) with the usual imaging prowess of full rangers but tonally not as rich as the Saadhanas. However, this was after hearing them in a much less than ideal setup (speakers too far apart - something the 6moons reviewer pointed out makes them sound a bit thin). I would want to listen a properly set up pair before coming to any conclusions.
