Over-rated:

Red Rose R3.  Very colored sound due to suck-out between mid-range and ribbon tweeter.  Did not sound natural or musical.

Polk RTi4.  Rave Stereophile review, typical mid-if high frequency emphasis.  Fatiguing to listen to without equalization to tame the high end.

Under-rated as used, too expensive new: PSB Imagine mini.  Bargain on the used market.  Liked so well bought second set.  I use them as bedroom TV speakers where their diminutive size is a plus.
