Yep, after a little bit more tweaking on position I've found there's actually loads of bass. It's very much dependant on the recording (well duh!) but it's there alright. I think I was swayed by the many reviews saying they are a little restricted on bass and some owners ever use a sub alongside. Since writing this post I saw in Stereophile's recommended components they're listed alongside electrostatics in the restricted bass category. As with electrostatics that's a little unfair.

As you say Ivor, I don't see there is a problem with the bass. It is very detailed but well controlled. There is no boominess or flabbiness. I think sometimes listeners confuse that with lack of bass presence.

Congrats Ivor have heard a set in Scalford a few years ago smaller ones than yours but really liked them. They were on the list to hear at some point but no one seemed to go for them over here. Will be over for a listen.

Woof Woof! Will he be safe? The little lamb he dominated on his last visit I suspect is a bit more intimidating now?

Testament to their good qualities is the fact I've stayed with the same manufacturer, now owning the Plus, though on some material I pine for the slightly more forgiving upper mids on these. Can't have it all, I suppose, and great speakers both. Enjoy. Now, I should probably mark that private ad as sold!
