System Goals/Comments:	Great natural sounding music -- Reveals what is truly on the recording, without being brazen, harsh or overly warm.
System Strengths:	Natural, sweet & airy presentation of recordings, with some lovely texture. Reasonably good slam, well articulated, tuneful bass.
System Weaknesses:	A little more grip down low.. and a little more finesse up top would be nice. I'm thrilled w what I have now.. and I've had more $$ gear. Next step will be to treat my room more.I guess.
