Stephen.......I searched, and could not find any active links to HiFi+, or any other review of the PMC OB1i. I have read some forum comments from owners, who all said the OB1i's blow the OB1's away. The new SEAS tweeter and reworked crossover seem to be the winning formula, plus the reworked transmission line, better braced cabinet, and cherry veneer on all sides. What's not to like?

Good Review.

My new OB1i's are sounding great. I agree about the binding posts, they are generic and have trouble holding my Wireworld Oasis 6 speaker cables with spades to the terminals.
