Very special stuff indeed.

Look for a review in Affordable Audio sometime late summer. :)

Looks interesting.  I certainly like my 170's.

Pretty impressive looking speaker. Measurements look good too. I would take exception to the 8-ohm rating, however....looks like a 4-ohm speaker to me.

I'm one of the early owners of the CBM-170s and have always been most impressed with their content value, tonality, and imaging.  My guess is that the Sierra-1 will compare well against anything up to $2,000/pair.

I've had mine for a few days now.  I heard a lot of more expensive speakers at the past CES that the Sierras are competitive with.
