I just spent 3 hours listening to the D40R and D28 at Arizona Hifi in Phoenix. I have also listened to Sonus Faber, Linn, Martin Logan, B&W, Magnapan this weekend.
The D40Rs are indescribably good. The music is real, crisp, floating in air, solid, vital. Listened to the D40Rs with Leben gear, and w/ Quicksilver V4. With the Quicksilvers I would be just fine with the DE28s. With the Leben, they became alive. The best thing I have heard. The $25k Sonus Fabers are good in a different way. I really want the D40Rs.
Listening to mainstream jazz.
