The MBL 121 omni monitors which until recently I owned, have the most 3 dimensional sound I've ever heard from a stand mounted or floor standing speaker. And with voices recorded in a natural acoustic space, probably the most convincing sense of reality (in other words, with eyes closed it takes very little effort to 'believe' I'm hearing someone singing.

For half the price the Jim Rogers JR149 is an outstanding performer (love that cylindrical aluminum enclosure with the Kef B110 and T27 drivers!).
