The most wonderful speakers I have ever heard - I compared them to several speakers that were twice the price and found that they (the other speakers) had nothing over these beautiful MS gems. I play them through a Harman Kardon HK990 amp and the matching Harman Kardon 990 CD player and I have a suspicion it doesn't get much better than this (value for money). Pity you couldn't give them a sixth star - so allow me! ******
