Transparent (the speaker disappears), BIG soundstage, very good imaging and exceptionally tight base.

Have not found any yet.

I upgraded from PSB Stratus Goldsi to the JMlab Electra 920. I am very pleased with the JMlab speakers. I am using them for both home theater and music. They are great for HT but really shine for 2-channel music. The center image is very very strong with 2-channel music. I also have the Electra center and 2 pair of the bipolar rears.

As compared to the PSB Goldsi the JMlabs are much more transparent (the speaker disappears), they have a bigger soundstage, and much tighter base that the PSBs. The PSBs are a laid back speaker with laid back treble. The JMlabs are a bit more forward and a bit more bright that the PSBs. The JMlabs are not a bright speaker just a little brighter than the PSBs. Don’t get me wrong the PSBs are a great speaker but for almost twice the price the JMlabs should be much better and they are.

none so far.

i also upgraded from the psb gold i,after living with the gold i for almost a year,i've found the gold i are laid back and boomy bass,while the 920.1 are more details and with tighter and better controlled bass.the 920's mid/high are also excellent.as always synergy and room acoustic are
important.there's always some better speakers out there,and everyone also has different tastes.but with these 920.1 i'm quite satisfied.instead of hearing,now i can see patricia barber sit in my room singing(live in person)!
i highly recommended these 920.1!go listen for yourself!

Before I bought this speakers I've listen to a lot of speakers and I found 920.1 the best sounding speakers for a price between $5000 to $15000 I've listen to Mezzo Utopia and their were very simular to Electra 920.1 but for the double price.

The 920's are super clean, refined and very musical. They will give all of the emotion being generated by the artist. It is very easy to hear any changes good or bad in any of the up stream hardware. With Theta, ARC and Atmosphere in the music chain the 920's are right at home. I have never gotten the feeling that they were the a weak link. These speakers are good enough to allow me several levels of up grades and still keep pace. I listened to numerous speakers in this price range, some good some not good but none came close to the refinement and smooth detail of the 920's. I like alot of depth and detail but with out cutting my ears. The 920's are a very solid product and worth the investment. With a frequency at the bottom of 32 hz, maybe a little lower in room response, it is not the last word in rumble. But they have never left me wanting to buy a sub. I compared them with the JMLab 915's, the 920's have a much bigger sound, with Theil, MartinLogan, Aerial and B&W, I,m sure that these speakers are good products but they simply did not have the easy finess and depth of the JMLabs. If you can afford them and are not looking to break windows with vulcano bass but rather are looking for refinement, detail and depth, please give the 920's a listen.
