This was my first room at RMAF 2012 (my first audio festival). And when I sat down who was beside me but none other than Jonathan Valin. The Blades sounded impressive on the first day if a little discombobulated by the room's acoustics. Also, the uni-Q driver coloration I've heard with every KEF speaker using it was present--though not to a large degree.

At the end of day three I returned and the sound had improved. The uni-Q combo was now singing with one voice--so to speak--and the bass issues had improved a bit also. Gee, maybe there is something to this breaking in stuff after all.
