If the cost has risen by 50% it must be 50% better, mustn't it?

So the website hype regarding sound improvements is not to be believed? Either way, that's one heck of a price jump!!

Cannot say that as they have only been seen on static display in Munich in May AFAIK.

Hi. I have been curious about the R1. I heard the E1TX in Tokyo last year, and it was impressive. Unfortunately, they didnt have the R1 during the show. I have been reading about it, and several have commented that they are on the detailed and bright side of things. Does this mean they are more analytical than musical? Also, are they harder to drive than what their specs suggest? TIA!!!
