Heard these today at audio lounge Leicester they sound awesome and look even better

I'm planning a group-audition trip to Bangkok later this year and this is a candidate. Thing is, the reactions in the review space are all over the map, so I'd welcome any customized reactions based on my own use-case, as follows: Low to extremely low volume Piano jazz trios and quartets Poured concrete room, 360cm w x 600cm d Placement 90cm from each side wall and the front wall (not very changeable) Lots of off-axis, companionable listening. I'm not a sit-stone-statue-still-and-concentrate audiophile. Budget = anything up to $2600 USD, though other candidates are all over the place Amplification = upgradable as needed (currently an SMSL AO-300, which is too small for these, I think). Is this a good choice, or is there another offering from Fyne Audio that's a better fit?

No issues here with low volumes, they are present and detailed, very room filling. The more you play them, the better they sound, they do take quite a few hours to really start breaking in. I'm listening to mine right now, and get excited every time I fire them up!

Have you heard b&w 705s2 ? If so, what would be your winner and why, f500sp/705s2/kef R3 Thanks!

Could you tell me how these fare with large orchestral music where there is lots going on? The reason I ask is that I've heard these speakers are best for small scale ensembles...but not for large groups where there is alot going on...I own Monitor Audio Gold 100s and I wanted to buy a horn loaded speaker for that more live, real sonority. I was going to get the Klipsch rp-600mkii. But these seemed better. But I know the Klipsch are probably more dynamic and I know they can handle large forces and complex soundtracks etc...
