Emerald XL  . . .

"ACI has built a tremendous reputation for more than 25 years by offering solid products with excellent customer service. The Emerald XL upholds this tradition and is an excellent value for $800 per pair, especially if you are trying to build a high quality system for a small space."

Jeff Dorgay in TONE Audio, Issue 19

 

"In a sentence, the Emerald XL’s set an absolutely new standard in their frequency range and price. They may just be the BBC LS3/5A of this decade.

I have a twinge of regret when I send most pieces back to the manufacturer. In the case of the Emerald XL’s it’s a dagger equal to one used for hari-kari. Having a set of mini-monitors this accurate and so tonally dead-on makes them near impossible to box up. Hands down, they are that damn good. 

Postscript March 31, 2009: I bought the Emerald XL’s, there was no way I could justify sending them back to Mike Dzurko."
