Coincident's "Victory" spk:beautiful, but... sound??

Coincident Technology's new "Victory" speaker has a beautiful cabinet and sports an impressive ribbon tweeter. But,does it perform like a high-end speaker costing nearly $4600?? I have read some reviews that claim the highs and mids are marvelous, but the low end is disappointing and rolls off sharply at 40 hz. Therefore, need some quality feedback on this model from anyone who has heard or owned this speaker system. Many thanks to all, SJ

If I was a reviewer for Stereophile, I'd give them an "A". Although there are probably some frequency anomalies that test instruments would show.
Not sure if it's the SET amp that gives this speaker a lot of it's magic. Sound is sort of lean but I did not think bright. Very fast speaker and that makes it loose some weight to it's sound.
I would like to hear Triangle Celius and this Victoryu in the same room as I think the sound may be similar except the Victory does not have the bright Triangle tweeter.
