Haven't heard the Planets, but looking at the photos posted by a member who recently sold a pair here, I think Duevel should provide a special vacuum cleaner attachment for sucking the collected dust off of those top-firing drivers - the woofer especially appeared to be a real "dust bowl" as seen in the one shot :)
I auditioned the Duevel Planets .
I currently own the Duevel Venus speakers driven by a Sophia Electric kt 88 in a 21x18 room. I was considering downsizing and in speaking with Ted, at High End Audio he suggested the Planets.
Ted brought a pair over as I live about 35 miles from him and set them up. No they are not as good as the Venus but for $1195 they are pretty amazing. Very open and detailed with surprising bass for their size.
If you are considering an omni speaker I strongly suggest you give these a listen. I had heard them on solid state at Ted's place and tubes at my place. They really like tubes in my opinion.
On a side note Ted moved my Venus speakers a few inches out and in and wow. I think I'm going to keep them for now.
I am not affiliated with High End Audio but wanted to mention a really nice speaker for the money and an excellent dealer.
