I wouldn't say that they emphasize the midrange, they're main concern seems to be getting the midrange right. Doing this, may be at the cost of less treble or bass, since that seems to be their primary concern. With that said, the bass or treble is not wrong, just not equally emphasized as American, or some others countries speakers may be. The bass and treble might sound lacking a little when compared to a lot of non-British types. They can be very accurate since the most important part of the music is in the mid-range area IMO. In the past years, they've been doing a better job of getting more the whole range included, without sacrificing their accurate mid-range. Spendor and Harbeth seem to go more in this direction, and less so with B&W, or some other brands.
