I've had the Beethovens for over a year now, my listening is divided between classical (roughly 80%) and jazz, and I continue to find them absolutely spectacular. I would say they provide a truly natural sound for those who appreciate acoustic/voice recordings, and who've been to live classical or jazz performances. And they mate wonderfully with analogue, as well as a digital source, if that's of interest.Before buying them, over a period of a few months I listened to comparable B+Ws, Dynaudios, ProAcs, Sonus Fabers, among others--all fine speakers in their ways--but the Beethovens always had me listening to music, and not auditioning speakers. They provide excellent bass, highs without harshness, and an exceptional mid-range, where most of the action is. They provide what seems to me to be a fine level of "natural" and coherent detail (unlike some speakers which can be called "analytical" in their accentuation of parts over wholes). I drive them with 75w monoblock amps, with no trouble whatsoever. Set up well, in a reasonable system, they will disappear into a transparent and vivid soundstage.
