Home Theater: Induction Dynamics Ties for the Best Sound of Show

I've already described a Totem product as best sound of the show, and I haven't changed my mind, but the Induction Dynamics room was just as good. So it's a tie. Big, smooth, transparent, addicting. The big fella is the ID1.18 and the center is the C1.8. Other models, including in- and on-walls, complement the ones we heard. There's no digital room correction built in—the sound is just plain old great engineering with patented crossover, timbre-matched drivers, external sub amp, etc. You get the best qualities of a big speaker (massive soundstage, top-to-bottom accuracy, meaty bass) with the best qualities of a small speaker (timbral fidelity, phase coherence, subtlety, comfort)—in a, well, pretty huge package. But it sounded stupendous. A 5.1-channel system would be roughly 20 grand and the ID folks will match your existing speaker finish or create whatever you desire on a custom basis. Wow, wow, and wow. Also, wow.

I own a pair of Induction Dynamic ID1's. I have been an audiophile for over 30 years. I have owned and heard a number of quality speakers (Thiel, B&W, Avalon, PSB, Paradigm, Focal to name a few), but the ID1's are the best full range speaker i have owned under 10K. They have such a natural and rightous sound. They play bass as low as any without bloating the sound. The ID1's do not over state any part of the spectrum. Induction dynamics is truly one of the best kept secrets in the USA. It's great to see them continue to develop quality products. Keep up the good work!
