I was impressed with the bass of these little speakers and thinking that I'd have to add them to my recommended monitor list... until I saw the 14K price tag. I can think of some full ranged speakers I'd rather have. But maybe there's a niche market for them, if I had some uber expensive condo in HK and not a lot of room, yet wanted the best sound I could afford, then these would be a consideration. Tweeter was very detailed but I worry about whether it would detract from my appreciation of the music over extended periods of listening. A great attempt though, at 8K a definite contender. As it stands Sonus Faber and Micro Utopias... here I come.
