It does make good, entertaining reading although I suspect the marketing bods have had slighlty more input than the engineers

when I looked they were £1700 / pair and the styling is much more "chunky" - not really to my taste. Can't argue about the sound quality though (well maybe I could claim the "100 times" is somewhat of an exageration )
