Horns: Why don't they image well?
I agree that there isn't any bass way down low. They actually play very well with some solid state amps, and other more powerful tube amps as well. Like any speaker, it brings out different strengths and weaknesses. 
Horns: Why don't they image well?
Like I said before Kosst, you're a good man. The La Scalas were playing in some pretty deep water there and held there own. Imagine optimal setup. Yes, they can image, but the dynamics make for a more lifelike presentation too, don't you think? 
Am I hearing things (you don't) ????
I have had tinnitus for about 8 years as a result of a medication I was taking. It really bothered me at first, especially as a music lover. I didn't want it to intrude on my listening. I found over a period of a couple months that my mind adapted... 
Can you help pinpoint why I am now satisfied with my digital setup?

WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES THINK YOU ARE BRAGGING WHEN YOU ARE SHARING?
calvinj,I didn't say that the thread was useless. Those are your words. I am wondering why it is that you initiate threads that are similar in topic, and negative at that. There are so many other things to discuss. Does it hurt your feelings that ...
