I just bought some kenwood excelon 25th anniversay XXV-04S component speakers from cruthfield clearance sale. I was just wondering how this compares to like boston acoustic pros, focal, and others in its class. I have not found any informative user reviews on this except one or two.
Can anybody tell me how good this is. I have never heard it played or seen it live.
But the component is pretty impressive atleast from its description.

To celebrate 25 years of audio accomplishment, Kenwood gave their engineers the freedom to build speakers that would be second to none. And they've delivered the goods with their XXV-04S component speaker system. These components deliver sound that's incredibly clear, detailed, and powerful — from the booming kick of the drums to the screaming wail of an electric guitar.
Sturdy, non-resonant, diamond cut cast-aluminum baskets provide a firm foundation for 6-3/4" woofer cones that handle high power and deliver superb performance. Read more
