information/feedback on dali speakers

Thanks for the responses Jose and Zilla

One other thing, can the MS4 play rock? Also can it handle dynamic peaks of orchestral music?

And is the MS5 worthy the additional stretch?

They're coming today! They're coming today!!
Will be driven by an Aragon 5 channel amplifier with two Outlaw Audio monoblock amps for the rears. All connected to an Integra 9.1 receiver which will act as pre/pro.

And I will drive them hard for the next two weeks to break them in. Will report back then with my listening impressions on both music (stereo and multichannel) and video (we're already fighting about which movie gets cued up first!).

By the way, I will be using a new Velodyne DD-12 sub with the Helicons.

I failed being able to tell if the MS4 or MS5 was playing in a brief blind test. They are VERY close. That said the MS5's are a "bit" warmer and slightly fuller. We are talking less then 3% difference. The 5's would be needed only if you had a very large room. Unless they are side by side you would not know the difference in sound imo. Even then they are close. PS (Hearing wise I do have perfect pitch.)Yes they do rock and orchestra.
Other speakers in the running before I purchased the Dali's were Maggie 3.6's and Sonus Faber Cremona's. No contest to my ears the MS4's are a cleaner, clearer sound.
Stereophile gave the 5's an A ranking, the same applies to the 4's imo.
