Nope, I've never heard 'em, but I read on the internet that they're good.
Seriously, though, I heard them and I liked them - but then again, I have yet to hear an old pair of big Goodmans that I don't like.
No, they're not brash, shouty or spitty but smooth and decently musical with a nice big, lovely bass. It is not entirely within the realms of possibility that one or more tweeters were blown on the pair that Puffin heard. If I remember correctly, they used the Goodmans DT3 25mm soft dome and these can be a bit fragile....
