I gave them both a listen today and they sounded quite good -- better (for my tastes) I think than the Pardigms sitting next to them, but I have found scant little in the way of reviews. I've no idea if they are worth $1800/pr, but the sound they projected was outstanding. Any personal experience with these speakers or insight as to their quality would be appreciated! |

I thought the 50's highs were a little to much and overpowered the bass and mids. The 70's had more bass and mids and brought more balance between the highs and lows. I personally would prefer the 70's over the 50's, but that is my ears and what sounds good to me. So the best thing you can do is keep listening to them and let your ears be the judge. |
