As for handling power, the EB1i's have rocked the house at 600 watt peaks without a hint of strain at any frequency range across the spectrum. The PMC EB1i is a tremendous loudspeaker.

I always find discussion of PMCs interesting, but as I am not an owner, I find the nomenclature for the different models very hard to keep track of; it's like trying to keep track of the Audio Note line. Or Harley-Davidsons!  I always have to go back to the PMC Web site to know which models you guys are talking about, and the PMC Web site actually doesn't have the best photographs that show the differences between the speakers, especially with respect to scale (how big they are compared to one another). When I saw the photos for the speaker model Jeff Whitlock has, and then I was over at his house and actually saw the speaker for real, I was very surprised at just how big the speaker really was.
