I just picked up a pair of the EVO 10 (rosewood) today and the break in starts. (Also, reserved an EVO Center, still comtemplating if I wanted to get the EVO 8 for surrounds).
Out of the box, is worth 4X more than what I paid for it.
The bass is very tight, the the mids are very clear and it is not as bright as most speakers I have heard before. Of course, I am just listening to vocals and jazz.
Unlike some models I have auditioned that are very boomy, the EVO 10 have front ports, so it is really not too picky on placement.
I will break it in for a few days, and I will post my impressions.
BTW, I went to the HIFI show at the Mandarin and the price of the EVO 10 is about the same as a pair of 5 meter mid price speaker cables.
Nice meeting you today, sanmig_ph.
You guys should check out the Q Acoustics speakers, for the price, it rocks!
