Update:
I now have over 100 hours on these. I can tell the difference...I truly love the soundstage these present and maybe for the first time in my life I am finding myself actually listening to the MUSIC instead of listening to a demo. Getting lost in the music. Can't truly remember that ever happening before. I hear things like background instruments and even soft background voices that were hidden before.
I played some music for my girlfriend saturday night and she even said, "well I thought it was BS when you said needs to break in"...Sounded insanely good. She heard them the first day.
And this is a room where there is no acoustic treatment yet. And a cheap USB
I am going to upgrade the 'little' things in the next few months. Power cords/ USB etc...
Bass at the listening position is weaker than I want but I also know the ARC software might help a bit.
These are also cool looking
