Calling out spatial audio m3 sapphire owners!


Hi I am living in Europe and are very interested in the M3’s

as I can’t return them and also have to pay 33% in import taxes I have to be pretty sure that this speaker is for me. 
First I have the Tekton Double Impacts and what I like about them is the big soundstage. Nearly all others speakers sounds small compared to them.  Big soundstage is very important for me. Also they are very sensitive around 96db in 4 ohm. I need a sensitive speakers because I have a 24w SET amp. 
I am searching for a speaker that doesn’t have the insane amount of bass my DIs have. Also there are some strange coloration somewhere in the midband. I can’t but my finger on it but it has staid there with different components.
I have a well treated room and the speakers are 1,5m out in the room. 
So are you happy wit the m3 and what inn your opinion are there strength and weaknesses?

i have maggie 1.7i's now, in place of my former pair of spatial m3 sapphires

they are both dipole radiators but that is where the similarity starts and ends, they could not present the music more differently

older gen m3 triode masters are an entirely different kettle of fish than the current gen m3 sapphires

different drivers, crossover, construction, vastly different sonic presentation
the negative post below is one data point on spatials... i suggest op go to audio circle where there is a dedicated spatial section, many many users overjoyed with their purchases of m3 sapphires and lively discussion on how to get the best out of them

it is a speaker with extraordinary strengths and a few weaknesses... no speaker is perfect... but spatials are excellent overall and present the music beautifully and with impact and realism, and at a very approachable entry price
