I suppose still try and hear them. But I'm pretty picky when it comes to dropping ten large or so
They just sounded like generic audiophile speakers type A, where everything is played back in that cold lifeless manner. I remember putting on Tristania's newest CD (pretty compressed) and going, what the fruit They weren't even particularly detailed. But they sounded "ok" with generic audiophile test discs and stuff, which is what the dealer was trying to woo me with.
But I agree they look gorgeous (everything JMLabs does).
