I know I'm jumping in late, but I have these speakers and love them, I paid $800 for them quite a while ago, just after they went out of production. I find their tone pretty neutral, and I think the highs are much softened compared to the metal dome tweeters in the B&W 685s they replaced. Acoustical foam on the walls and a compete power cord upgrade from Cullen Cable, including the power box and the perfect plug, further tame the highs. Soundstage is wide and deep, imaging is detailed, frequencies extended, full sail ahead. Not getting rid of these anytime soon...

Hi All. Anyone have these speakers? I have had them for a few weeks and they are just what I have been looking for. The synergy with my 10x13x10 music room and my Marantz PM8004 and SA8004 is perfect! I read somewhere that they have their own sound but I think they are fairly neutral. They even make my red book cds sound better! At least I'll be jumping off the speaker merry-go-round for quite awhile. These are keepers!
