As awesome as they might look, I would assure you that the sound is much much more. If the recording is even reasonable, I no longer even know about speakers, I get lost in the music, I find myself conducting, I keep saying "Wow", over and again. So many CD's, so little time. Even things like Creedence Clearwater Revival present stuff I never heard before. And listening to Renee Fleming singing "Summertime" by Gershwin is so heavenly that I get tears in my eyes.
Yeah....awesome. I was thinking this evening that I would enlarge the woofers to the ceiling in a large sonotube, and I kid you not, I found myself saying, that I couldn't do that because it would block the sound from the basses and harpsichord which were behind the cellos. Talk about depth of image!! I had to remind myself, that there wasn't a harpsichord back there behind the basses!
