The La Scala's do a lot of great things, and boy can they sing and sound great.
I've reached a point - especially as I've upgraded cables - where the resolution is so good it's highlighting things about the LS's I don't care for on some kinds of music. Such as a terrible mid-bass hump (some claim it's the cabinet that is not well braced) that makes voices chesty. I found adding dealing with vibration control on gear helped quite a bit, but there is still much left and no trial and error of speaker positioning or seating position has fixed.
Also, in my very large room these things have NO bass at all. I knew they would have less bass than the Cornwall's, and they are fine for classical and blues, but when I listen to bass heavy music there is so little bass it sounds tilted up. Also certain voices sound "lightweight" and don't have full body due to this.
I even upgraded my sub to a 16" SVS, and blending is a challenge due to the horn loaded woofer on the LS's, and when I raise the crossover frequency on the SVS to get to a point where it fills in the bass adequately, it doesn't blend well and sounds muddy even at 24db slope as it's now too high. Note I have also played with the phase of the sub as it is infinitely adjustable.
The speakers sound huge, lively, expansive and have wonderful midrange and highs. But I've had a lot of system changes and I've moved beyond them.
