Not sure where you are located, but we have the G3's(black) in our Manhattan showroom, if you happen to be in the NYC area. We drive them with either Merrill Audio Veritas amps, or a Kondo 32 Watt integrated amp. You are always invited to visit and have a listen. Bob 212-2290-1842 Rhapsody Music and Cinema.
I heard the G3s at the NYC show and thought they were one of the best sounding rooms at the show (I think it was the Rhapsody room from above) for whatever that's worth. I think they were being driven by Mola Mola amps but not 100% sure. One of the few rooms where the bass wasn't overdone, although the music was being played at a relatively low level (both times I stopped in) that I found a little frustrating, so that may have been a factor. Still, the sound was very natural, balanced, and coherent. I'd love to hear them under better conditions and with my music, and if I'm you and given the price of the speakers I'm buying a plane ticket if necessary to go hear them. Best of luck.
i have the G2s. Simply awesome, but my experience is that these speakers love power. I am driving them with Musical Fidelity's amazing new-ish M8700 monoblocs amd M8 pre and couldn't be happier. Fantastic detail and speed at SP levels from low to concert. Even at silly SP levels this setup produces no distortion or edge at all.
