It would be interesting to look at timing errors in digital
and isolation products.

Enough of this. Congrats to EA. Good sound is hard to find...

Here at home burn-in is doing it's thing. Have used a 20Hz senoide wave for almost two days since it makes almost no noise and makes the woofers work very hard. It's incredible to listen to the difference it made. Soundstage (3D), micro-dynamics and speed are fantastic. Tonal balance is very good, but will probably improve with more burn-in. Speakers get a little "shouty" when driven to louder volumes, but I guess that it has to do with the ribbons needing quite a while to really loosen up. With lower volumes I don't get that kind of response. Because of that macro-dynamics suffer a little, but I haven't even reached the 100-hour mark yet.
BTW, the Diablo simply gives me UNBELIEVABlY fast, deep and "correct" bass without shifting the tonal balance. I absolutely love it. The Cantata is very neutral without losing musicality. It simply gives me all the detail I could crave for without messing with the musical experience. I think that burn-in for it is almost over.
Will continue to post impressions.

I'm also on the burn-in bandwagon. I've been slowly starting to toe them in a bit, but was cautious as the treble was a little hot (in my admittedly lively room) and I was concerned about making that issue worse. I sent Jonathan a pic after toeing them in a bit and he came back advising me to toe them in some more - he advised aiming the speakers at my shoulders. Definitely good advice. I'm not sure if they're more lively off axis or the extra toe in is preventing early reflections - either way, a very positive change. They're really starting to sing now.

Groovybassist, are you saying the MMOnes sound like Harbeth 7s? I don't particularly like Harbeth 7s (or SHL5s, which I owned for a while).
In what ways do the MM Ones sound different than the Harbeths?
(More resolution and less of the occasional tweeter ringing I hope.)
Thank you sir.

Rgs92:

I wouldn't say the Harbeth's sound like the MMOnes. With my equipment, the Harbeth's had great midrange, OK bass (decent extension, but definitely rounded off - resolution of what was happening in the bass was a bit blunted), and decent, but occasionally sharp treble. The MMOnes have better extension, mass and way better resolution in the bass; the mids are clearer and maybe a smidge leaner than the Harbeth's (although further break-in may ameliorate this); and the highs on the MMOnes are way better - cleaner, more pristine and since I've toed them in more, none of the occasional sharpness I experienced with the Harbeth's.

In my system and for my tastes, the MMOne has definitely eclipsed the Harbeth's.
