Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): Classic Rock, Alternative, Indie, Jazz
System Goals/Comments: Smoothness, clarity, and soundstage.
System Strengths: Magic midrange and detail, in part due to the Treos, and aided by the high-passes for the 2WQs, which allow the main speakers and amplifier to focus on highs, mids and upper bass. Individual instruments and voices appear to rise and fall with the volume knob, as opposed to the entire record or CD, if that makes sense.
System Weaknesses: Ultimate loudness is somewhat less than some other systems/speakers, but only at ear-splitting levels.
