How do they compare with the perfects? I want good midbass and spatial highs. Thanks |

The tweeter is strong and works best when installed close to the midbass, if you do tweet in pillars you won't get the best results and the tweeter will be piercing. The A/D/S sets are softer and more natural, if you want a smoother sound that emphasizes the mid more, they're great sets. |

How is the bass response on that a/d/s set? As good or better then the perfects? Thanks for your help , I know it can get tiring answering the same questions to different peeps all the time. |
