I don't own them anymore.

They are shrill sounding on top with zero imaging/soundstaging. Worst still is they get congested when played at higher levels.

Some confuse the shrill top end with transparent and resolving, not so.

The last one I had, bought used for $175, developed a loud, humming toroid transformer.

I would consider them for subwoofer duty only, and only if you can find one for $200 or less.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
