As a D15 owner I continue to especially admire the mid range and especially the vocal presentation of these floorstanders. It doesn't image as well as the 1SC but then again that's the compromise when comparing monitors vs floorstanders.
I listened to Totem Forest which I believe are more $$$ than these and still prefered the D15's. At the moment I'm using solid state amp (Rowland Concentra II) so I cannot comment on power matching with tubes.
With regards to the downward firing on the D15, at least for me its an advantage as it eases the issue of positioning IMS.
