Strength:
Very open and neutral. Have yet to hear better highs. Decent bass for monitor.
Weakness:
Really must be set about 4' from back wall for best imaging. I shopped a long time for my first system to achieve some sense of synergy and get the most for my money. Although somewhat costly, these speakers do spoil you with open dynamics and neutral presentation (sometimes too neutral if source material is not as well recorded). |

Strength:
Clean, clear tone, detail in bass, construction - hell, everything you could want in a speaker this size.
Weakness:
Dull looks (Yeah, well, big deal, it's the sound that counts) This are the best speakers I've ever owned, and some of the Similar Products Used: Sonus Faber Concerto, NEAR M15 |

Strength:
Everything from the midbass (40 Hz) and up.
Weakness:
Port noise at high levels. At 15” high, 8” wide, and 11” deep, the size is a little bigger for speakers using a 6.5” woofer. It weighs about 19 pounds, which is typical for the size of this speaker. The finish isn’t very special, black ash, looks dull and boring (reminds me of 500 dollar speakers). You can, however, get birds eye maple but you have to pay extra. But it doesn’t really matter for me since its all about the sound. Similar Products Used: B&W Nautilus 805, and other more expensive speakers |
