It's unfortunate you dismiss them so quickly having never heard them. For what it's worth, like digilog5 who also posted to this thread, I have been a panel speaker enthusiast for a long time. I am sensitive to cabinet colorations and horn shout, for example. Mike, I humbly suggest that you check them out regardless of any preconceived notions. They are not exciting in the common audiophile sense, though: they don't jump out at you, which ultimately results in listening fatigue, nor are they flashy looking.

Brian makes a good point. These aren't flashy speakers. Their appearance is nice but conventional. What makes them special, I believe, is the attention paid to the crossover, the cabinet design and the choice of drivers. When I first heard the 630s at RMAF I found myself listening for longer than I typically would in an exhibit room. I did that even when Todd Ryan played music I didn't particularly like. The sound I heard kept me interested and involved, with no inclination to move on and try something else. That's proved to be true also as a 620 owner.
I was so impressed with the Ryan R630 sound that originally I was going to purchase the highly-acclaimed Spendor D7 speakers but now I'm not so sure and may end up with the R630 instead.I'm going to go for a longer, more personal audition of the Ryan R630 this coming weekend.
