[QUOTE="JonnyP, post: 655470, member: 17918"] OK, the XT6Fs have had a good run in and I can finally comment on them. They are quite simply the best speakers I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. They are fluid, the music sings, the bass is defined but just perfect, to give an idea, whilst listening to Jlin (try listening to the whole aabum on anything else - I dare you), the bass beats (think fast and glichy) sounded great and non-fatiguing. A bit of dub (King Tubby meets the rockers Uptown) was liquid and subterranean with no distortion at low frequencies. This from a tape that is twenty years old of a record even older! Highs aren't a problem either. Yma Sumac is handled with ease as she moves through her octaves and no shrillness at the top. But where these really win are in the overall package. The midrange is beautifully but not clinically defined. It is music as it should be regardless of genre (and boy, have I tested genre). Last night, Neko Case sang 'Twist the Knife' in my lounge. So yes, I'm gushing, but they really are all that. Get them while you can and enjoy. For reference, the amp is a VA Exclame 100, CD Primare V20, TT Thorens TD166 mk2 with Ortofon MC Vivo Blue and a Project phono stage. [/QUOTE]
