    What's everyone think of the Swan Diva's?

    They sure look great and aren't a bad price.

          I think they look great too, but my wife would hate them! Why? "What's that little nobby thing on the top of the speaker?" I once bought speakers where the tweeter could be seen and they lasted about 10 minutes in the room...so I upgraded! hee hee hee hee

            We posted our review of them recently and I've had experiences with them in two differing contexts (what is the plural of context?).

            Here's a link to our review of the Model 4.1s:
            Secrets' Diva 4.1 Review.

            I've heard the 6.1s with P-1A room correction and P-3A DACs in a demonstration for the Chicago Audio Society. The results of the entire combination (totalling ~$4000) is nothing short of amazing.

            In addition, for the audio portion of our recent DVD benchmark I was using the Diva 5.1s driven by an Integra 9.1 receiver. They were a bit tizzy on top to start, but either I got used to it, or they broke in and I was able to find their performance palatable. Now I'm not the best candidate for a speaker like the Divas, because I use Electrostatics for my main speakers, and these ain't ESLs

            If you're budget constrained, these might be a viable option for you, just make sure that you do lots of listening and breakin so that you have a good feel for their performance in your system before the 30day return policy expires.

            Regards,

                  I fell in love with them when ThomasW first intoduced Swans to the Guide. They are beautiful for sure! I just wish I could justify changing from what I have now. I love the sound but, the Divas win in looks hands down.
