Well, they're here and I've unboxed them and plonked them on the kitchen table for now (until i clear out the study and put together the stands). I am not going to be making any judgements until they're on the stands and in situ, but some initial thoughts:
The rosewood finish is beautiful. really attractive and will make the speakers a feature of a room rather than an addition. Very happy I paid the extra £50 for this finish.
The dimensions of the speakers tread a fine line between remaining compact and appearing 'purposeful'. They look solid and well constructed and have a reassuring heft to them too!
The digital connection requires a smaller-than-your-average toslink. so my chord optichord is no good, but I picked up a suitable interconnect from Maplins for a few quid.
All plugged in, and connected to my SONOS, now to have an initial listening session. I'll report my findings later in the day!
