This is a pretty unique speaker- any thoughts out there?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as always. I would be afraid that people would mistake them for mailboxes and try to shove their mail down the horn throat.
So how many more speakers are you going to journey to hear before you make your decision?

People with that low of an IQ are simply not allowed in my listening room.
Does it really matter? I think what I've learned on my journey is the grass isn't always greener despite the $$$$.
YG Sonja 2.2s on mega $ electronics wow'd me for sure, but isn't going to happen financially and without tube amp options
AG Duo XDs were probably my second favorite, but don't believe they work in my new room that is only 14' deep
Stenheim Alumine 5s had a lot of potential and I have continued interest in the brand
Honestly, I just don't think I'm the normal Wilson, Magico, Rockport kind of dude. I want something efficient with tone, nuance/texture, and dynamics. I heard the A23 Hommage Cinemas once and they seemed to do this in a very different manner.
It's first thing I thought of when I saw the mailbox comment ;-).Thanks for making my point AJ. That is hilarious!
For a low power, no NFB amp, that is good advice. This one has that in spades https://www.stereophile.com/content/auditorium-23-hommage-cinema-loudspeakerLook for speakers that have a nominal impedance of 8 ohms and that have high sensitivity.

Stays entirely above 10 ohms with very high sensitivity. It will however, have an electron microscope effect on any noise/distortion in system....which no NFB certainly won't help.
I was thinking about the amp that he already owns which is the Ref 75. 75 watts of push-pull power and it does have some NFB.
It is a good match in the sense that it should have both low noise and distortion (if desired).Totally agree the ARC isn't an ideal match
As for the "Does it really Matter?" comment, it matters to the dealers that are taking the time setting up a system for you to hear. Time is money.
Totally agree the ARC isn't an ideal match. But there are several in its price range that are, including Shindo which the speaker was designed with.
This I have to totally agree on.
