@essentialaudio I've heard several Ryan demos using Aurilac streamers and Vincent Audi amp/preamp combo at quite a few shows. I spent a lot of time in their rooms because I like their reps and I dig the sound. Most people at the show described the top end a bit extended and a little hot, but in the best way possible. I actually enjoy it. Not strident or shouty in any way.
I have to conclude that this must very system dependent, because some reviewers had called Ryan speakers neutral, while other have commented that they are anything but. All positive reviews on both sides. Many people describe the top end similarly. Not in a negative way, I definitely plan on adding some Ryan speakers and GR research DIY gear into my collection this year.
