powerful. non fatiguing, good imaging, and serve all types of music well

not really a weakness but need a lively amp...currently i use a Musical Fidelity A5 integrated, previously a Classe Cap 151 integrated.

bought a pair of THIEL CS1.5s ($2100) to replace my Signet 280s ($700). After a few months, I got tired of the Thiels. They were veiled and way too bright. I'll
take the Signets over the Thiels anyday. I traded the Thiels and bought the
Montana SP IIs and have happily lived with them for the last 10 years. I recently
went shopping for speakers and auditioned quite a few... Sonus Faber Cremonas, Vienna Mahlers, Audio Physic Scorpios, Martin Logans, Krell. I liked the Audio Physics and the MLs, but didn't want to spend that much, so i bought a pair
of Monitor Audio GS 60s ($4000). Well, after 6 months i was ready to sell the
Monitors 'cause i preferred the Montanas. Actually, i haven't found a speaker yet that beat the SP IIs, so i traded the GS60s for the Montana EPS2s. I figured i
might as well go with what works. Haven't heard the EPS2s or received them
yet (they're on order), but i have confidence in the designer. You never experience listening fatigue with the Montanas. They are powerful, yet smooth,
and have a wonderful midrange and top end. We'll see how the EPS2s stack up.
I'm hoping they don't overpower my 25' by 19' room. My only reservation on the EPS2s are the weight (150Lbs) and size (53" X 15 X 15). I've never had
such a large speaker nor paid so much ($8500).

AWESOME!!!!, worth the price from Highs to Lows this is one fine speaker.

I bought this speaker after a recommendation by a friend and reading the Stereophile review. WOW. The sound is very neutral and natural. The highsare extended and low end can be phenominal. Peter, the deisgner at PBN, is
a great guy and really knows his stuff.

My system consists of various cables, TBA Integre DT, Muse Transport and
Meridian DAC.
