Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
I have the 3.5 in my listening room along with a perfectly matched MF nu-vista super intergrated amplifier and 3d cd player, the amplifier is 250w per channel into 8ohms and the proacs are perfectly matched, i have had many speakers but the 3.5 is bliss, this speaker despite only having two 6.5" woofers has so much bass response its unbelievable, they have superb speed and dynamics, far better than anything i have ever heard, trying to put accross how good these are is useless in words, you realy have to hear them for yourself if your lucky enough to ever do so, be warned though if you have back problems do not try and move these 70kg speakers yourself, it took me a while to toe these in just to get them right but boy are they superb, to hear a speaker that actualy creates a sound that you cannot place where the music is coming from is truly magicle, shut your eyes and you are there in the crowd infront of the live performance.

I further improved the resonance by making some isolation platforms out of 38mm mdf with bevelled edges and sprayed them with ten coats of satin black paint, they have done the job marvelous and also look the part with the speakers being light veneer, they do require a pretty large room to get the best out of them, and as they are over 50" high also requires them to be in a pretty large room.

Review NaN of

Price Paid:  $5400.00

Summary:
I've owned these speakers for at lease 6 years. they are great speakers
to my ears. Every time I've improved other components in my system
the sound of my speakers vastly improves. Added Tekna speaker
vibration control devices on them. Improves the sound even more.

Strengths:
Outstanding bass and midrange. Very dynamic.

Weaknesses:
Only as good as the rest of your system.
Big sacifice $$$ for me. Worth it. Has to go to 18k
or more to better the sound.
