Hello - I heard them at the Lone Star Audio Fest a few weekends ago. I was very impressed and thought that that room was among the best sound at the show. Very modest system with a Cary CDP ($?), a Glow 5-watt amp @ $700 or so and the Concertos @ $3500 ($4200 in all wood finish). The Recitals @ $1700 were there and sounded very good as well. I seriously considered buying a pair of the Concertos.
