I'm not saying there won't be plenty of people who do like them, but I just find that the DB1i and GB1i don't enbody what PMC are all about - that starts with the TB2i's and FB1i. In a big shootout of standmount speakers between £600-£1,000, the DB1i's were the liveliest of the bunch, which many people will like, but I found that many other produced a cleaner, less distorted midband, particularly the ATC SCM11's and SCM7's. I know this is a strong point of theirs, but for me it highlighted this issue with the DB1i's.
