Hello Bo,

Please be so kind to PM me!

I own a pair of pl300ii’s and they’re sublime! I’ll never need to buy another pair of speakers now! They’re being pushed by 2 JC1’s. Although a little biased, I honestly don’t see how anyone couldn’t fall in love with these!  I also have a sub to get the lowest frequencies! If you’re into hip hop, and expect the kind of bass you can feel, you’ll need to a separate sub! I’d highly recommended the SVS Ultra PB16, for the sub duties!! 

Big,

They don't fit the "High end" mold. They are far too smooth and neutral, and perhaps at first listen a little dark. Compare to B&W 801s or Golden Ear speakers to hear what I'm talking about.  I'm not criticizing, I'm just saying, these are two different schools of speaker design.

If I absolutely could not build my own speakers, the top end MA are on my short list. AMAZING performance for relatively affordable speakers.

They absolutely deserve the best you can give them in terms of room acoustic treatment, you'll be rewarded.

Best,

E,
I never thought of it like you just express it, "They are far too smooth and neutral, and perhaps at first listen a little dark." I've owned my PL 500's for awhile and everytime I think their dark, I play something that has a little bite to it and I'm reminded that in my opinion their neutral. The detail is there,  it just doesn't hit you in the face.

ricred,

That's how I like them. For me, great speakers can play anything really well.

Other speakers I think are AS smooth, but cool is Magico.

Older MA silvers I have owned were quite musical, but punchier. Definitely jazz/rock speakers.
