Just learned from ML sales that the Aeon-i has officially been discontinued - and the "fair trade price" policy no longer applies to this speaker.
Good news for me, since I just bought a pair of the Aeon-i s for $3,395.- and my local dealer (Magnolia) is giving me a price adjustment based on their sale price of $2,500. a pair. The dealer also said that they sold out their remaining Aeon-i s over the weekend during the sale.
Interestingly, again according to ML sales, the replacement is the Vista which is priced at $3,695. a pair (fair trade etc.). I asked the sales person what the difference is between the Aeon-i and the Vista - and he told me that there are more and smaller holes in the stator (like the Clarity) and therefore the speaker sounds better....
Also the styling is different with a smaller woofer box.
Sooo, if you have been looking for the Aeon-i s, now is the time to shop for a good deal and get this ML reference speaker for less than the "entry level" Clarity.
Just my 2 cents worth
