My S1 Mk2 experience is coming to an end soon (I hope) as my M3's are due next month. I have to say the experience has been beyond pleasurable. I've put back a lot of the acoustic treatments in my room that I removed as part of my Raidho experiment. I have been rewarded by the S1Mk2's. The soundstage, presence and detail are superb. I shake my head wondering what the M3's will sound like if the S1 is this good.
One interesting note. With my side wall traps and sound planks back, I found the center image was overwhelming and I had to take out most of the toe-in (after I took these pictures) The center voice is still well defined but is now more balanced with the rest of the image. I did not spike these as they are temporary. I'm certain that would have produced further improvements in the sound as my room is carpeted.
Truth be told, I'm going to miss these little rascals when they get returned to Mike. I don't think he's got enough room for yet another set of speakers. Hopefully someone will give these a good home. They deserve it.
