I just bought a pair! The thing that captured my attention was how easily they disappear. You literally don't notice them and notice the music instead. The bass is amazing-and the complete tonal range is articulate-never harsh. You must spend a LOT of time setting them up but once they are man are they amazing!
They are very revealing, however and will not make bad recordings sound good. "What you give em is what you get"
As the manual states, If you dont get goose bumps they are not set up correctly!
