I found these speakers nice & very polite. They have good manners without being weak. Pls note that all my auditions were with Lamm electronics. These speakers seem to play everything (at least) well, some things better than "well" (chamber music, in my case). They are VERY difficult to fault: i.e. point to something that doesn't sound quite right, as opposed to something else that sounds majestic. Also, they are reasonably phase accurate, as stated above (comparing a live performance to a cd, as best I can... i.e. not very accurately).
These are just impressions, don't forget, and I haven't lived with these speakers, not tried a variety of amps on them...
