[QUOTE="BodegaBay, post: 2460693, member: 560141"] Didn't see this post until recently. They do look good. I've owned MA Silver i's and demoed the Gold some years ago. But ultimately I found that British speakers (MA, B&W, etc.) are not to my taste. For the most part, the Brits like their details in metal domes and Monitors gives it to you in spades. The trade off is narrow dispersion and are very directional. To my ears, I've found them to be ear piercing after 45mins of listening -- I ended up selling my Silvers and MA never impressed me again. MA Golds are high end but not ultra high end like B&W Nautilus, Revel Ultimas, Dali Euphonias, etc. If you like silk tweeters and hate metal domes, I [B][I]HIGHLY [/I][/B]suggest you demo the MAs before purchase. While I love their cabinetry, their sound is an aquired taste. [/QUOTE]
