Perhaps this is a byproduct of using ceramic and metal for each driver. I’ve had this issue with other speakers using metal drivers like those from KEF and Paradigm. Definitely not for me. I’ll also note that the resale value of Canton is horrible in the US.

Sooo I own the 9k reference model for many years and they look and sound as new, which is as instruments and music sound.
