Has anyone auditioned the BeoLab 5 speakers?

These speakers have gotten mixed reviews. Some listeners claim that they provide great depth of field, others think that they are two-dimensional. Some people love the base, others think it is way too much. Some people like the highs, others think they are harsh. Is it possible that the front end B & O components are responsible for these apparently irreconcilable opinions about these speakers. What do they sound like with good front end components?

In the sake of resurrection:

I auditioned the Beolab 5 and I left the store in state of shock, how great these speakers are. Absolutely stunning especially at very high and painful spl they sounded composed and I could not detect much compression & distortion. Absolutely brilliant.

Now, what I don't understand is why so many people are negative about them... I really don't, it doesn't make any sense... After all this is 21st century!! I welcome technology advancement.
