    it begs the question... how much bass do you need? Particularly when the midrange is so open and glorious, I have a double height ceiling and rear wall reinforcement, and there is plenty nuff bayass. Blimey they love vinyl too. (not like that) The number of cone speakers that just emit a thud for bass as they rock their paper knackers off, I'll pass thanks. If you've heard a good horn speaker with a full range driver, theres detail in that bass, which I would take over thumpity thumpity anytime.

    Devil with an address like disco towers, I don't reckon theres ever enough bass for you.

    I do like them, but I don't think they can play bass or drums realistically. Not a problem on certain types of music.
