Hope they are doing it for you Harbapapa, can't really remember an ugly moment at all with settling them in and the changes were more noticeable on 3.7s... and most every other bit of gear that Ive put into the system.

Though by the time the 20.7s got here the positioning within the room and the supporting gear was fairly much set for them.

That said the panels do clearly free up somewhere at about 600hrs and keep doing so through till about 900hrs (yes, I play a silly amount of music on the days I work from home) with more agility and better timing in bass rather than necessarily the extension.

They have proven a constant foundation and their primary shortcoming seems to be more in terms of revealing the shortcomings of any gear you throw at them... Have yet to hit the limits of their abolities and I'm tryin... I still hold the resistors are their only significant weakness and give off a slight compressive edge and brittleness to their upper mids and tops when the vol is cranking... Putting in a good set of jumpers means they run more transparent/faster with the downside being then that the rest of our gear has to play nice still ... Still lovin em.
