| System Goals/Comments: | To be able to close my eyes and feel like I could walk across the room and talk to the musicians between sets |
| System Strengths: | Good imaging, smooth mids, quiet background - locks my attention on the music, but comforts me enough to let me relax into it. Soundstage is much better with Stratos in place - deeper and wider. Imaging is less focused but more natural. Low bass has power, but the speakers don't do it justice at this point. |
