[QUOTE="zako, post: 7533553, member: 629735"] HAT Imagine speakers are very nice, the online cost is $250. Right now I run mine passive but will switch to active soon. I like them, but they are the most expensive speakers I have heard. The sound is very neutral, a little more upfront but not too in your face. Can't complain about mid-range or highs. Midbass frequencies are robust, but could have a little better sensitivity. With one way xmax of 6mm and quite a bit more of throw, you can safely boost midbass eq without bottoming out these woofers though. There are many good sounding speakers for this price, I am sure you can find many good ones, but I picked these because the mids can play much higher (up to 5KHz or above) in the frequency range than most other speakers, hopefully giving more consistent imaging, at least in an active setup where mids are placed far away from tweeters.
