These speakers are not boomy by any means if carefully placed (at least 3ft from any wall or another speaker). If anything they are on the taut side, at least when compared to most other speakers I’ve had in my room. I had Studio 60v3 and they were much riper in the low end, perhaps a bit too much. The v5s are capable of tremendous transparency, neutrality, drive and impact if paired with the right equipment. They also throw a huge and seamless soundstage and have surprisingly deep bass for their size. I have not heard a better 2-way or 2 1/2 way system in my setup all things considered.
