I've heard the Calypso in a background system a few times. Just with an adcom tuner and some older speakers of unknown origin. Sounded good - nice warm sound with good transparency. Can't say I heard them in a 'critical listening' environment. They're quite a nice package for the price.
One of my friends who is a major tube guru was working on one when I came to see him. He commented that they were very well made.
