I listened to the Adamantes and the Astera's at Fidelis as well. Absolutely stunning looks. Warm, smooth non-fatiguing sound. I did prefer the Harbeth Monitor 30.1 and SHL5 plus over them though. Please don't take it to mean I think they are too smooth. I just preferred the Harbeth's sound, I liked what they did better overall in comparison. If I remember correctly all the demo's I did were using the Pass Labs INT-60 integrated amplifier.
