Not sure exactly what advice you're seeking. If you're thinking about a purchase, I'd only note:
I heard them at B&O's Beverly Hills showroom a few years back and they sounded absolutely awful. I really wonder whether they were defective (because there was an audible rattle at volume), but the staff seemed to think they sounded great.
So, if it's purchase advice that you're after, my only suggestion is: Do not buy these without an audition. Remember, I suspect that I heard a bad pair so I'm not bashing the product, but - off my experience - this is one item I wouldn't touch til I got satisfied that the poor sound at audition was the fault of the sales staff rather than the speaker.
