⭕ The music AND THEATER is breathtaking.And at 93db sensitivity,you can effectively power the entire unit pair with a minimum recommended 10 watt/ per channel tube amp.You will never have to turn the W/Ps up to get the full effect.And where many high end speakers do well with only high quality recordings, there is doubtedly a favorite track out there that will not astound with improvement and transparent detail.
On one side of each of the Puppys (not the Watts) there are a few scuffs and dings that dont show in the photos.I cannot see a single cosmetic flaw from any listening distance,however,but for full disclosure (we audiophiles are very particular)Functionally,they are 100/10;close your eyes and they disappear with the artist.
The majority of the gloss still looks brand new, esp from any distance.Gently broken in,these WPs can sound better than when purchased for $18K,however,at this stage,to keep the crisp attacklike new, they need to be refoamed.This is something that the other two pairs did not have done.Additionally,my pair comes with the heavy duty,dual adjust aluminum spikes(a must have to properly toe in your speakers).
