Yes, I owned a pair and they are powewrful indeed but no soundstage depth and too hifi sounding for my tastes.I've always had tons of depth with the JC-1s as have my customers (I'm an authorized Parasound Halo dealer), but they do sound thin while they are not broken in. They reveal the character of other components in the system. It's all about system matching, and JC-1s may not be Sjhall's best option for other reasons.
