I was hoping for more responses as well. I did listen to these at a show (not the best place to listen) and I was shocked at how good these are. I've heard no speakers put the musicians in front of you as these do. Great transparency, and very "live" sounding. They also open up some great possibilities in terms of amp matching, 300B lovers take notice of this. A great party speaker if you ever need it to be, everyone at the show just loved these.
I'm guessing that the bass not blending well is an issue of the speed (or lack of) from the conventional woofers vs the horns. Same problem with earlier (and still to a lesser degree) hybrid electrstats. I believe the current version 2 generation of Avant Garde has addressed this (but I can't say for certain)issue of better blending of lows.
