Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way?

OK, controversial subject but it needs asked. I'm curious for your experiences, mainly in your home, not a dealer and esp. not a show demo

My Time Window 3s were nothing much. Went trough all the B&W Models up to 800, they were just ok (although heard the well broken in new 802Ds, pretty good) then all Wilsons. the Watt Puppy 7s could peel paint if needed. My Yvettes with the new tweeters are very good, better than the first Sasha. Speech? You mean like Cohen? Good topic.
