They Suck - Absolutely the Best Way!

They suck - yes they literally suck you in with their amazing sound. These speakers look fantastic! They are worth the asking price and compete with my KEF LS50s. These speakers sound amazing. / of high, middle and low frequencies. The vocals sound fantastic. They don't sound harsh at all! above) The finish is amazing! Even my wife likes them, they are not KEF and my Audioengione A5+ You can use them as studio monitors in the right place, they are SO BALANCED! Amazing soundstage! - The tweeter is amazing too, it's not harsh but does a very good job of bringing out the best in your dialogues and music. With proper placement and small music rooms, a subwoofer is not required. NOW for some caveats. You need at least 8 inches of space from the back wall and at least 18 inches from the side walls and at least 7 feet between the speakers. You need POWER! - I've noticed they like high current amps, they sound better to me with my Parasound A21 (250 watts into 8 ohms, both channels active) than my Emotiva TA-100. You REALLY need a subwoofer in a large room. Up to 53Hz they are very unclean, the subwoofer crossover at 50Hz with 12dB slope fits very well! CONNECT THEM TO THE BEST DAC YOU CAN BUY! - This is a BIG MAN, before you buy these speakers make sure you choose the best DAC you can buy (I'M NOT SAYING BUY THE MOST EXPENSIVE DAC BUT BUY THE ONE WITH LOTS OF GOOD REVIEWS). I tested them with three DACS. To me they sound best when paired with my IFI DSD Black Label which sounds better to me than my AUDIO-GD Master & DAC ($500 vs $2500. see why) I use my speakers in a 2.1- Channel Parasound Setup A21IFI Black LabelSVS SB 2000 They are worth every penny.
