Yes. I had their monitors in my house for an audition. Really quite good for the $400 price tag. But the one on the right w/ the woofer near the floor was outstanding. I think they were the first to use a woofer w/o the traditional dust cap where the spider for the voice coil was connected in the back of the cone.
