Ccoczhou is correct. My friend has a pair and he loves them for the same reason Cocozhou states above. I have a bunch of speakers Talons, B&Ws and Alons, etc., these all beat the jamos but that does not mean that they are bad speakers, and they are very musical and easy to listen to. The bigest issue I have with the 11s is that they do not have the bass slam of the other speakers I own, but otherwise they are very open sounding, and easy to place. The B&W matrix 803 series II were not as open sounding but had a sweeter mid range, more natural adn better bass but the B&Ws require a lot of power to make them really sing.
Buy them and enjoy and Happy Listening.
