Others saying they sounded great, but me finding them brash at the top. Strangely, the same has been said of some Tannoys, but I've always liked their treble quality (apart from the IIILZ model).
I had a demo with some Dyns, could not get on with them at all with Jazz, the cymbals just got irritating after a few minutes.
