Anyone heard Ubiq Model One?

Anyone heard Ubiq Model One and can tell me how it sounds? Is the treble harsh og bad recordings, like almost all high end speakers? How is this speaker on 80's hard rock recordings?

Thanks

I heard these speakers via an Ayre Tube Integrated with KT-150's, run in triode mode. Perhaps there was a mismatch here that resulted in an overly soft sound (which was not apparent with the other speakers auditioned in the same session). My impression overlaps with Ochremoon's, but with the pendulum swinging further in the soft/veiled direction.

FWIW - my over riding impression of this amp/UBIQ combo was a lack of immediacy (and I am not a detail freak). It may have been a matching issue.
