While all the drawbacks of driving and positioning the Apogees (any model) - Once set up and driven by an appropriate setup - e.g. Classe DR3VHC and a big Krell KSA/KMA on the bass, the Apogees are majestic, dynamic, scarry real, and once you are done wincing at the nails on blackboard low treble torsioning distortion on high powered peaks, you realize how much the rest of it is just so amazing.
Perhaps the Graz altered drivers finally have it all sorted out, but whether they do or don't, the Apogees do more "right" than anything else I have heard. And I never got to hear a pair at their best.
I did hear a mini grand, and it was very impressive. Davy had a Stage but was not happy with it because of the bad torsioning problem at high volume as the ca. 2khz distortion was very much a problem.
