I have been listening for a few months to the new Alón Napoleon Sat/Sub system, latest creation of Acarian's talented Carl Marchisotto. This $2295 system (the price gets you two small 8''H x 5 1/2''W x 7''D satellites that weigh ten pounds each and a substantial 16''H x 16''W x 18''D powered subwoofer that tips the scales at a meaty 85 pounds) does so much so well that one has to ask oneself if it is worth it to spend more? Heck, for another $700 you can get three additional satellites and go to town in 5.1 surround! While this is not cheap for what appears to be a set of tiny two-way pansy speakers, let me assure you that these are not toys. As a matter of fact, in a small-to-medium-sized room, I have seldom if ever heard a more convincing system unless the price tag climbs three or four-fold. This system is good.
