Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): Baroque, Classical, Romantic, etc.
some Rock, Jazz, Swing
System Goals/Comments: My system goals are to achieve accuracy, transparency, neutrality and detail without excess sibilance and harshness.
System Strengths: Very detailed presentation with amazing imaging, excellent midrange
System Weaknesses: The Vifa D25 metal dome tweeters are slightly on the bright side of the spectrum (in the other speakers I have heard as well as the BESL 1.2's). This makes them unforgiving of some pop and rock music.
