“The ME1 has very few obvious drawbacks, and its shortcomings are mostly attributable to the limits of its modest dimensions. However, its top-end still retains some residual dryness, and can’t quite summon up the same velvety harmonics of the CR1 or the barn-storming macro-dynamics of the CE1. In spite of the stellar imaging I’ve written about, soundstage width and depth were only adequate in my smallish listening space. But I’d imagine better results could be had in larger rooms. Finally I can understand how some listeners might not cotton to the sharp specificity of a concentric driver. The precision with which it draws boundaries around images seems natural to me, but it may seem mechanical to others.”

“I started this review by mentioning that affordable products usually do not have high end allure, but Aurum Cantus takes a good stab at rewriting these rules. The V30Ms are beautifully sculpted and truly luxurious looking speakers indeed. They sound solid and assured, yet highly refined. Star of the show for me is the ribbon tweeter which sounds delicate and airy and well resolved. Surprising too is the amount of bass that these standmounts produce and inbetween is a warm and relaxed midrange. The V30M’s sound much larger than they are, and can play really loud too.”
