It's very good IMO. It tends to sound better at higher volume, and is a bit too boring at low volume.
Thee is a muddiness to the midbass that can add some life, but is definitely a coloration. Other than that, its flaws are mostly subtraction, not addition, and are ver liveable.
I think that there are better combo's of integrated and speakers for $2k, but this is competitive, you get the speaker cable thrown in (and it's not bad at all), and it's small and easily placed.
I have heard these on Red Rose stands (the taller ones, not the short angled ones), and I bought mine with different (demo) stands. Seems to be little or no difference, except obviously looks/matching.
I'd recommend it, given the caveats above. All in all, it plays music very well.
Hope this helps.
BTW, no problems at all so far....
