I had loaner Europas that I listened to briefly, waiting for Callistos to arrive. The Europas weren't broken in, so I'm not sure comparison is fair, but it seems to me that the Callistos have a much better bottom end, more assured and with much lower reach. Mids and highs on the Callistos seem more present and lifelike. These speakers are just amazingly musical. They make it seem easy. Oh, and the crossover and time alignment provide for great pacing! Finally, I will say that these speakers look much better than the Europas -- I've actually gotten positive WAF on their looks, unlike the Europas. Sure they look a bit like a thumb, but as I told Roy J., it's a beautiful thumb.

Anyone else breaking in a pair of these speakers? I have a pair with about 24 hours on them, and I hear moments of spectacular sound, but not yet at low listening levels. I know 200 hours is the magic break-in time period.
See my system under "Leahy" listed under "evolving system" for other system details.
Let me know if you would like updates as these break in...
