Great little bookshelf speaker, very underrated. It is great for near-field listening, office rig den etc. Excellent voicing and midrange. I have too much stuff and need to clear out items not in my immediate rotation. $95 + shipping

These are great little speakers. I have a pair I use with the office rig and in the area of vocals and upper mid range these are more natural than my 5B's. An amazing little speaker that punches far above it price tag.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -

These really are great speakers. I think everyone should try a pair of these at some point. They're a nice reminder that HiFi can be enjoyed at a reasonable price.HT
