Does anyone have any experience with JM Labs Alto?

Subwoofer all the way with those little babies. I heard the Micros for an hour and freaked. It wasn't until I heard them with a sub that they truly happened. Which sub? Hey, put it out there. I love my Sunfire Architectural. I was very interested in the Micros, but I'm waiting on Harmonic Precision's Caravelles. Should happen in a couple more weeks. Less money and bass and coherence to die for. I haven't compared the two, but was told that a speaker of the Alto's caliber would be a better comparison. Sounds pretty amazing. I'll keep you posted. peace, warren

P.S. Heard the Altos as well, but not for a very long time. Amazing. Should be at that price. I think you'll be very happy with a killer sub and those Micros. YOu probably have those babies atop their stands. I know they look good, but they would do better on my stands. Hey, I'm sorry-I'm digressing.

I've auditioned a pair and personally prefer the older mezzo utopias. To be fair the alto's tweeters were not broken in when I auditioned them. I also know a couple of philes that have the alto's. Everyone of them agrees that the alto's tweeters take a very long time to break in.

There must be something about the BE tweeter breakin. I've heard from another, the same thing about the new Micros. When I heard them at Sound by Singer, they were, obviously, well broken in. Don't have a referent, though, never having auditioned the non "BE" line. peace, warren
