After six weeks of listening, JA said this in 2006:

"I haven't said anything about coloration. That's because, despite the variety of program material I auditioned on the Studio/100s, I was never made aware of any persistent problem in this area. This is one neutral speaker."

So there you go - this f###in' pre-pro would sound as bad as the SA-14 did in my system, and it can't be Paradigm's fault!
