Def Tech SM 350

Have had these for two days now (about 15 hrs break in so far). These are some of the best sounding bookshelf speakers I have ever heard. When comparing with the PSB Alpha Bs, (and it's not really fair because the Def Techs retail at twice the price) the Def Tecs do everything better. Great imaging, mids are fantastic and the lows are not bad for a speaker of that size. Def Tec claims down to 26hz, which may be a bit misleading because its probably barely audible, but they are effectively in the 40hz range. I can hear the low E of a bass guitar loud and clear.

Demoed Steely Dan "Babylon Sisters" and "Hey 19" (after about 10 hours of break in) at -35db on the Pio and I gotta tell ya, the sound was incredible. I cant believe speaks this size sound the way they do. My listening area is only about 1700 cu ft and they more than filled the room. For well recorded tracks, a sub is really not necessary IMHO.

Listened to early Norah Jones stuff next and got the "chicken skin" effect (which is a measuring stick for me). Cant be happier and sadly the PSBs will be up for sale soon.
