[QUOTE="PV Audio, post: 2554920, member: 554493"] To keep things short, these are the best sounding speakers I've ever heard. Arrogant or not, these were to try to replicate the sound of the Definitive bipolar towers, but at a fraction of the cost. I wouldn't even think about those after hearing these things. Detail is ASTOUNDING, the bass is mindblowing (first speakers I've ever had where I don't even want a sub), and they just melt into the room. Now, there is a problem. The top woofer on the right speaker has a rubbing voice coil. The cone doesn't even move smoothly when I push on it, it sounds like you're clearing your throat or scraping ice off the freezer. I can even see it misaligned when I look around the phase plug. No matter, another one is on the way (well, at least ordered). Pics don't slow down shipping, however.
