information/feedback on dali speakers

I match my Euphonia MS4s with a SS amp (Sim Titan) and a tube pre (VAC)/dac (Audio Note). Fatigue is not an issue for me. The only form of fatigue I get is walking up 10 feet to the transport and changing the CDs ;-) OK, I admit it, I'm a lazy spoiled bast***d!!!!

My aunt has the Helicons paired with a Musical Fidelity pre & amp and a Rega Jupiter CD player. The finish is to drool for. Performance is about 80% of the MS4 and it's less than half the price.
If anything, the Helicons are a teeny bit on the trebly side.

Jose.

Let us lay to rest that Dali MS4's are bright.
First they must be broken in for a week or two, and that means driving them hard. (Huge difference in sound once broken in.)( Think two weeks.)
Second they prefer to my ears to be widely spaced and pointed straight forward as stated by Dali.
Third they sound best to me sitting farther from them then other speakers that I have heard. (Think two or three extra feet.) Also try tilting they back a bit for best integration as suggest by a reviewer I believe from TAS.
Bright!!!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!!! I can't stand bright or hard speakers. These are very liquid on top.
They are clean and clear and have all the bottom end that I need. They have great resolution, and I have not experienced any fatigue on good recordings. (Junk recordings sound like junk.)
If you hear bright you have a source problem.

Thanks for the responses Jose and Zilla

One other thing, can the MS4 play rock? Also can it handle dynamic peaks of orchestral music?

And is the MS5 worthy the additional stretch?

They're coming today! They're coming today!!
Will be driven by an Aragon 5 channel amplifier with two Outlaw Audio monoblock amps for the rears. All connected to an Integra 9.1 receiver which will act as pre/pro.

And I will drive them hard for the next two weeks to break them in. Will report back then with my listening impressions on both music (stereo and multichannel) and video (we're already fighting about which movie gets cued up first!).
