I've been listening to the DIs for about a week now. Grills came in just a few days after the speakers. Fit and finish were very nice on all. Heavy, watch those cones. I lifted mine with a neighbor using the ports front and back. Banana plugs were loose so I pried them wider but they are still loose. It has not been a problem as the connection stays fine. I'm still in the break in phase but very impressed with the great sound. It's a little bit upper ended I think. I'm hoping that it is due to lack of room conditioning which I will try to address with temporary on/off wall treatments. I've noticed that the better DSD and 96kHz and up, FLAC recordings do sound very much better in the lower ends as well as spacial separation and sound stage.
On the other hand, I don't listen to deep base recordings so that could be the biggest reason. Sitting in the "Zone" 90" triangle, reaps the most rewarding experience but walking around the house the sound is way more upper ended again. I think that more base would be brought out with more amplification through monoblocks.
