Ever heard of, any opinions on, these speakers?

River,

My first impression with the bass was the same as yours. I think they have settled down nicely now. They sounded totally different after I put some hours on them. I have these in a second system, and the room is all hardwood floors, a couch, and one chair. No room treatments, so, I expect the room is a bit to the bright side. I have not tried them in my main system. That may be a factor, but, I don't find the bass "bloomy" or "loose". I like the resolution... For the cost. I have much better at home, but they cost much more as well.

I also sell PSB and Klipsch, to name my two top sellers. I've had B&W, ProAc, KEF, and many others over the years. I can't list all of it on here due to manufacturers restrictions.

The 460T's that I had, sold out quickly. In hindsight, I wish we had ordered more. I had a special offering for Maple, which is not usually available. Are you looking at the Maple by any chance?

I don't know what you can buy these for, but, I don't think you would be disappointed in them. I don't use them for critical listening, but, in this system, I'm very pleased.

If you want to contact me, you can email me at zydo1966 at yahoo dot com. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have. Pity you live so far away from me, we could put them in my main room, and spend some time with them.

Are they audio nirvana? No. Are they a good value? I'd say yes. I'm listening to them as I type, and I'm enjoying them.

River251:

Have you researched the Roth speakers?

Dekay, yes, I have read everything I could find on the internet on them. Not very flattering.

Thanks.

I picked up a set of these in 2015 and fell in love with them. I liked them so much I also grabbed the 25CC centre, matching 45RS surrounds and the 310S sub. The system is impressive to say the least. A rich soundscape with solid lows mids and highs. What I like about them most is that the highs are not straining to the ear even for extended periods, the mids cut through super clean, but again do not cut your eardrums and the lows are solid and punchy. I ended up getting two sets of these, as I enjoyed the first set so much I used the 2nd set to replace my Cerwin Vega 5.1 setup, which were due for it anyway.
Don't listen to the sheeple, who all seem to think Klipsch are the best speakers on the market, I hope you ended up getting a pair of these, it would be a good move on your part. I can safely say they are amazing speakers.
