Source material was played through both a Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player and Apple TV (connected to iTunes). They were powered with an Onkyo TX-SR797 receiver.
The speakers were set up in a listening room that was about 10 x 15 with a 9 foot ceiling. A negative point for energy conscious consumers, but not a big enough “turn off” for us considering the way these speakers sound. So when the sub amp is turned on, it stays on, even when you’re not listening to anything. We’d recommend instead jumping online to the AV123 site to get the nitty gritty on setup from other folks in their online forum, or just calling up an AV123 support representative.īesides the poor manual, another oversight (in our opinion) is that there’s no auto on/off sensor on the sub amp. Unfortunately the manual, filled with jargon and poor diagrams, didn’t clear things up for us.

So we referred to the owner’s manual for help.

But figuring out how to properly connect the jumper cables was a bear. For those that just want the thing to work, there’s a set of “jumper cables” included with the speakers to make the connection between the main speaker input and the sub amp inputs. AV123 says this gives you more freedom in that it gives you the ability to wire up your powered sub direct to your receiver or main amp, which may be preferred by some audiophiles. The sub’s amp is not directly connected to the main high level inputs on the speaker. But on the Strata’s, that’s not the case. On most powered tower speaker offerings, the speaker inputs are internally bridged over to the sub amp. Setup with these speakers is a bit more complicated than most because of the built-in active sub and the way AV123 designed it. The Strata’s stated frequency response is 27Hz to 35KHz. It comes with the typical adjustment controls: Variable crossover, gain, and phase. The sub is powered by a built-in class A/B amp with 350 watts of power.

So accompanying the array is a 5.25” mid-bass driver that handles the lower mid bass spectrum before the powered 8” sub takes over. Planar magnetic speakers are known for their high frequency output (higher than standard tweeters). A planar magnetic tweeter and midrange are in place to provide an airy, crisp, detailed tone that is extremely articulate at any volume level. The driver array is also unique for this price point. But this is a feature typically only found on extremely pricey speakers so we’re not complaining. It’s debatable how much of a difference this makes in a casual living room listening environment. The speaker cabinet has a slight tilt-back that phase-aligns the bass, mid, and tweeter drivers. We could have gone with one less color/finish component. The variation between finishes and colors seemed a little distracting to our eyes.
The rear portion of the speaker that houses the subwoofer and amplifier is finished in a satin black, smooth vinyl material. The speakers are finished in a pretty “South American Rosewood” with a satin sheen, and capped, at the top, with a glossy black “crown”. They have plenty of bigger speakers, and plenty of smaller ones too. Believe it or not this is actually one of their mid-sized offerings. If you’re into those little cube speakers, then stop reading right now and go visit your local Bose outlet, because the Strata Mini’s aren’t small. Priced at $1995.00 USD per pair, only 50 of these speakers are being made each month.

Today we are taking a look at the company’s Strata Mini Loudspeaker which use a combination of planar magnetic drivers, cone drivers as well as an integrated 8-inch subwoofer. They’ve got a great group of technically savvy audio gurus who can walk you through their various offerings. But don’t worry – you can pick up the phone and give them a call. In fact you might become a little daunted as a newcomer to their site. AV123 carries a broad range of home audio and home theater speakers. But visiting the community section of their site you can hear from hundreds of customers who are raving about AV123’s products. That’s a pretty tall order to deliver on. They also sell amplifiers, turntables, cables, and other esoteric components that get audiophiles salivating.įounded and managed by Mark Schifter in 2000, ’s promise is, “above all else, to provide the customer with 3 distinct advantages service exceeding your highest expectations, products unlike anything you’ve seen or heard before, and value beyond all else”. They have a huge following amongst audiophiles and audio enthusiasts alike (check out their forum and see for yourself). If you’ve not heard of, you may soon be a minority. They are one of a seemingly rare breed: A manufacturer of mid-to-high-end speakers who sells their stuff exclusively on the internet.
