Yes........... that's the reason my current speakers aren't going anywhere until the 807Ws are fully broken in. Another reason I went for them is the price. Amazing clearance deals out there at the moment. There is a pair in walnut only 15min from the house, but they are $150 more then these were new, with free shipping. Wonder if my wife will notice the change from cherry veneer to 'hot lips red'?
BAT, which is about ~45mi from where I live, uses(d?) the smallest of the floor-standing Utopia series (Diva?) in their demo room. They were about as good sounding to my ears as any speaker I've heard with their VK-55SE PP amp. Am hoping for similar results with my near-field listening in my 7' ceiling listen space.
