i finally got these last night.they came in the original Silverline packaging triple boxed with 2" closed cell foam totally encasing the speaker.they weigh 110 lbs each and came with the spikes, owners manual and a nifty Silverline Audio Demo CD. the 1st thing to get my attention was the sound of the Dynaudio Esotar tweeter which was very clean, crisp and extended
.the LPG 2" domed midrange is the same one used on my Sonatina mk II and its a wonderful German made transducer that sits right at ear level from my listening chair. a Dynaudio 7" midbass driver sits below the LPG domed mid and last but not least on the bottom resides a 9.5" Dynaudio woofer that features a 4" voice coil with a dual magnet structure.the cabinets are beautiful bookmatched rosewood. they sound very coherent from top to bottom and i no longer feel the need for a subwoofer.i dont bet but if i were a betting man it would be a pretty safe bet that these Babies will stay in my main Rig for years to come. these are really sweet Speakers
