Very natural sounding. Small speaker provide good sound stage. For my 2 channel movie/TV application, it is won't offer boom boom bass effect but it out performs many 5.1 system in different ways. (Not good at describing it) No boom boom but the sound stage good.

No boom boom bass to shake the windows...but this is not what this speaker is about at all.

My background: I am not a stereophile.. I just want to have a system that can resolve details so I can tell what instrument are playing.

I love Montreal and so I started my dream speaker research back in 3 yrs ago with Totem.. which is based in Mtl QC. It turns out to be The Canadian Good Stuff. I like stuff to be small and I don't want any sub at the time. For highend mini-monitor, I don't think there is a lot of option out there. B&W, EPOS, Paradiagm Signature were all on my list but the were bigger and they don't sound as good. It is Model 1 signature that stand out. It is very natural sounding and the frequency response is very good. I actually think the Model 1 sig deliver pretty good bass. The sound will just fill the room. You will be surprise.

My Model 1 is in my living room along side with the TV. It is on a sand filled 100 bucks speaker stand. Model 1 Signature is used for everything. Movie, TV, CD, SACD, IPOD, Airport Express(suck) and my work laptop sometime. I love the detail this speaker can resolve. The speaker style is classic and the build quality is amazing. For the price... I be on drugs if it wasn't

I start off my hi-end system by buying one piece at a time and I choose the speaker. The Model 1 Signature offers quality response to the sound but my amplifier is not up to the task.

Recently, I got a Cambridge Audio 840A. I am very happy with the improved detail my system is giving me. What I wanted to say here is that it is a speaker for many years to come and I am happy that this speaker can go along with good high-end amplifier to deliver good warm natural sound.

Excellent built quality. Non musical. Good for equipment and sound quality testing. But only more or less decent for music listening. They sound impressive only on high volume levels.
