Yes, very good.
Excellent in fact. I have had my paid for about 4 years. I also thought that the bass response was not very good in the very low frequencies. That changed once I connected a tube preamp instead of a solid state and later on a passive 'preamp'. The tube pre (Dared SL-2000A) REALLY made the difference in the bass response. So much so that I blew the surrounds off one of the woofers during the first two hours of listening!
Until I got this preamp I was considering changing the speakers, now I think I'll hold on to them for as long as there are spare parts. (I also have to replace a midrange dome that I damaged during the last relocation).
The design and the choice of components (especially that freaky circumference driven, suspensionless midrange titanum dome) is truly ahead of its time.
If you can find a pair for sale, buy it. (no I am not selling mine ;-) )
