Swan 6.1 speakers?

[Kens1]

I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with the swan 6.1 speakers? I came across them on the audio insider website. They are very reasonably priced and look similar to the old swan divas which use to get very good reviews. I thought swan did not make speakers anymore. According to the website I could buy the home theater package that includes these speakers, a centre, surrounds and sub for around $2000.00 us.
Of course this price has raised my curiousity as well as my skeptisism. Is this a get what you pay for scenario or a really good buy?
Any input on these speakers would be greatly appreciated.

They're actually very similar to the speakers I built for my own system and they mate very well. They'll sound very smooth and warm but still have decent detail in the upper end. If you want to get a feel for what the tweeter sounds like see if there's any local Polk dealers around as the LSi line uses the same vifa XT25 tweeter.

I've had 4 of the Swan Diva 6.1's for going on 3 years now, and I couldn't be happier. I think I could have spent a lot more money for a more name brand just to get comparable performance. But I don't know much of anything about the newer Swan models.

That's where I bought my speakers - AV123 - but it was before they came out with the Rockets. The Rockets are supposedly an upgrade, but I have not heard them.
