I bought the GR-60s over a year ago. Just after moving in to our new house. Long story I won't go into here.
I agree about the sound. I was not impressed by the bronze or silver series. I had a reference point in my former M3si as to the quality I was looking for. In down-sizing I was tempted by the other Mirage omni speakers but wanted the precision of direct radiating.
I was always concerned about the ability of the smaller speakers to properly handle the dynamics and hence shifted to larger speakers. Technology has come a long way since then and hence the original question in this thread.
Those Tannoys are really nice (from Stefanko?). Concentric tweeters! I notice the acoustically isolating carpet under the speaker
. I had soft packing foam under my 895i speakers for a while
.
Alan did say that the power handling of the European speakers were not up to the Axioms. I think I had confirmed from the manufacturer's ratings that this was true.
