Jelly lmao!!! I've heard that recently as well.
I'll give you my impressions Michael the other may have a different view.
After everyone left me, Nelson, Bob , and Key were sitting and talking about the d3's . There was a pop every now and again. Key who also heard the d1's break in with Bob mentioned that the d1's popped until they were fully broken in. And they do not pop anymore. So we all figure that they are not fully broken in yet. Even though they have a few hundred hours on them.
But even so they were world class speakers and had a huge almost round room filling sound that the d1 and the c1 .1 did not have.
We listened to a song on the c1.1 and then right after listened to the same song when the d3's were connected. Everyone looked at each other and said "is that the same song" it just had more of everything but I don't think they were as pinpoint accurate as the monitors which is like any speaker would be. . I don't remember the names of a lot of songs and there was a disc full of great so t's that no one knew who was on it but it sounded great.
I was sitting in the sweet spot and Mike was on my left. I turned to him and said that's 2 different pianos one on the right and one on the left center area. He said yes it is. Then I said , you don't get that on kefs , he just smiled and shook his head and "no you don't"
I was also floored by a song none of us ever heard with an accordion in it . That was spectacular!! If you like deep wide soundstage and to be able to hear everything being played or sung to perfection, then these are for u. Do they pump and drive like a revel studio or salon? Probably not. But I don't think these were made to do that.
With that said I'm wanting to buy a pair of c1.1's cause the value to performance is awesome.
But I'm not in the market for a full range like that nor can I afford d3's.
I'm sure a deal can be found on the d1's cause they seem to be the odd man out. Hmmmm
