Let's try this Dave and Troy.
Given the same electronics, the Persona will typically sound brighter than most other speakers.
So yes, electronics matter, but the bottom line is most people will find the Persona's bright given a head to head with 95% of other speakers.
Even your system matching genius, uber cables, stands, and decoupling isoacoustic magic and power conditioning.... won't change that. Given a head to head with the same electronics - they are bright to most people.
I don't really think anyone has said they are bad speakers.
