Airmotiv T1 set vs Rocket RS 750

[neuronbob]

I haven't been on this forum too much lately but with all the excitement about the Airmotiv loudspeakers in the audio press, I wanted to pose a question.

I know the Rockets (or at least their purveyor) was controversial, but I purchased these when the company's quality was still top-notch and they are going strong, minus damaged grille covers (thanks kid!) My current setup is RS750 fronts, RSC200 center, RS250 rears, and a UFW-10 subwoofer. If I changed out, I'd still be keeping the subwoofer for now. Of course, I have an Emotiva LPA-5 amp (that thing is nigh on indestructible! Love it) and UMC-200.

The Airmotiv 5-channel deal seems at first glance very appealing and I was thinking about making a change.

Has anyone heard at least both the T1s and the Rocket RS750, or at least enough to provide a subjective opinion?

Thanks.

I am interested as well. I have the 850's, 200, 300's, and 750's are rears.

Actually, I bought them with a LMC1 and LPA1 set. I don't think emotiva even had a website back then. I figure I was a pretty early emotiva adopter.

But I've been wondering the same, how do the Rockets match up to new speakers these days? Emotiva for sure, but what about SVS, Ascend, etc.

I have rockets as well. 1000 s, 450 s 300 s plus mfw s -had them for about 9 years. - is it time to change - emo. Ascend tekton funk walks walks philharmonic. - so many choices
