I listened to these speakers for more than 20 years, from 1976 to 2000. Excellent when compared to other speakers at the same price point in 1976 (like the Elipson 1303, JBL L100, AR 3A,... no Unidentified Sounding Objects), they cost two months of average monthly salary back then. Throughout the years they have lost their superiority and have been matched and, finally, surpassed by other products in the small hi-fi world. My B&W DM605-S2 from 2000 that replaced them are clearly better in terms of musicality: They have the same deep low end, but even tighter, and the high mids sound "less harsh." And the B&W CM9 I bought in July 2011 really relegate them to the unexceptional hi-fi "vintage" category. I'm sorry for fans and nostalgics.
