I have never had pleasure to hear D9’s but have been a D7 (with gorgeous “Spendor Dark” premium finish) owner for 6 months.
I am extremely happy with them, and chose them after auditioning around 20 other speakers.
I toe in slightly, but not directly at listening position. Tweeter points just outside of my shoulders maybe a foot or foot and half. Speakers are 13 ft from listening position and separated by about 11 ft.
The LPZ tweeter really takes the D series to the next level above the A and classic series, imo.
I also have mini monitor SA1 in secondary system, but the D7’s are my favorite.
Regarding bass, I’m extremely impressed with D7. I have big room (15’x39’) and while I supplement with a REL S5 sub, I don’t really need to and only have the Rel volume at 3 clicks of 40 or something and crossed over at about 36Hz, so the REL isn’t adding much.
