I've been listening to my little boston stand mounters for the last month. Since I have no stands, they've been sitting on upside down laundry baskets. The baskets provide an excellent midrange although bass can be a little wooly. I sold my B&W CM7's on ebay more than a month ago. The bostons actually sound quite good. But I'll be happy to replace them on Tuesday with these....(hopefully they arrive undamaged...)
