I really can't agree with the saying you have to pay double to get better.I listened to some Meadowlark Swifts on the same set up.It was a day and night difference.I could easily pickout the position of the musicians and singers in the soundstage.I couldn't do this on the Psb goldis.And neither could the other person auditioning them.The tweeters called attention to themselves where the Meadowlarks were more seemless.The Meadowlarks had a 3 dimensional soundstage with depth.The Psb's had a 1 dimensional soundstage.When I sat down to listen to the Meadowlarks it sounded like one big speaker.When I did the same thing on the PSBs it sounded like two big speakers.I'am not trying to bash anyones speakers but this is honestly what I heard.I guess we all have our demands on our equipment.One of mine is a system must be able to disappear while only leaving the music.If it can't do this on certain recordings, no matter how much it cost it isn't for me!I don't own Meadowlarks or PSBs so I'am not biased towards either.But the Meadowlarks were clearly better engineered to what most audiophiles will probably prefer.
