    Hardly. Have you heard the ALS40 Mike. They have an even fruitier bottom end than the pure transmission line IMFs.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    As per the advice above, I sold these because they were overpowering my living room, which whilst not massive, is not tiny either.
    Making the whole room shake is quite funny, but not really hifi.
    I was glad to see that they worked much better in Macca's larger room.

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    That seems the general consensus, mind you I do like to turn the wick up just a tad ( much to my daughters disgust) most days.

    I think I've been given approval to go for something around the size of Harbeth 30's so the IMF's would be binned the minute they came through the door.

    Now on the lookout for standmounts around 46cm x 28 x 28 or thereabouts, anything bigger and I'm pushing it

    You know guys, ever since I heard a pair of TDL Studio 1's around 1994 I wanted a pair but things moved on. I was offered a pair of the Studio 1m's but sadly I was a long way from them at the time with other commitments. So unfortunately I never got to own them but I adored their bass extension.

    God knows what the neighbours made of them; mind you the JM labs I have now are not bass shy, either.

    Thing is I'm looking for something to make the bass thunder but still retain great treble, is that possible is a speaker 18" tall and only 10-12" wide?

    Even at that size the boss is going to take some convincing lol

    Philips RH541! If you can find working examples.
