Minnesota morning
i haven't seen much info on AK regarding Usher speakers, especially the newer ones (dancer line) - I'd seen them in various audio sites , but never investigated further. A pair of mini dancer 1's DMD came up locally on a nearby island and I purchased them.
Really surprised at the quality workmanship of them . The Walnut veneer that wraps around the back looks beautiful. Bases are all metal with cones and spikes. Gloss lacquer on the fronts with ports at bottom. Gold plated biwire jumpers. They very much remind me of sonus fabers. The drivers are of their own design (the woofer looks like the woofer sonus faber uses. The tweeters are the best part , they are a diamond desposit sandwiching metal.
Set them up out from the wall a little over 3 feet from back and side. I have a Vandersteen 2wq sub with their top end filters to handle the bottom end.
The sound is awesome. Great soundstage (wide and deep) the tweeters are really smooth - the instruments and voices are very defined. I've had many speakers set up in the same spot and these are as good as any. The are very "high end"
