Optimum Avion 8925
For
Decent bottom-end and control; good detailing
Against
A little slow sonically
The Avion 8925 is a heavyweight piece of furniture. It has a tapered design, which allows it to be pushed back in to a corner – a fairly big corner, mind you.
Its straight-line castors require installing, as do the handles, but this is a nicely solid hi-fi cabinet.
Sonically it's a little slow on its feet compared with the class-leading Hi-Fi Racks Podium XL but there's not much else to gripe about, with decent bottom end control, and good detail recovery.
