Klinkt goed en voldoet aan verwachting

These 5" full range speakers are made for high fidelity reproduction. I still didn't go through the 100-200h of breaking in, but after using them on a daily basis for two weeks I can finally start to hear what they should really sound like.
I installed them in my 2m tall Voigt tube speakers, and they sound amazing. Because of the Voigt tube setup they gained in bass and lower middle frequencies without losing in precision. They reproduce sound perfectly even in low volume and every detail can be heard precisely and correctly.
After testing them with a friend's marantz amplifier for a few hours I switched back to my old Pioneer. It only made me realize that I need a better amplifier for my new setup. On my other speakers (I have a lot of them) I couldn't notice the subtle difference between two similar amplifiers. These drivers, at least in my current Voigt tube speaker setup, make it very easy to discern the subtle differences between amplifiers.
If you need high fidelity, point to source, full range drivers that are not colouring but have good bass, middle and high frequencies without really sacrificing anything, you should go with these speakers.
