I've just never cared for their products. I've always found them to be more of a "boom" type line. Even their Solo-Baric line, which they purport to be their "SQ" type line is very muddy and non-musical sounding to me. They made such a big deal about the square Solo's when they came out. They marketed them under the philosophy that a square woofer (obviously) has more cone area, and therefore can produce greater output. What the forgot/failed to mention is that more cone area also calls for greater amplifier power, as their sensitivity went down. The square Solo's sound pretty crummy at low power and not much better at high power. The square Solo's are very much a "one note wonder." The last generation (those with the fully hemispherical cone) of the round Solo's were quite impressive. They sounded tight and musical, and could get beat your brains in loud if you asked them to. Also, their components tend to air a little bit on the side of brightness. Their amps have always been so-so to me. Certainly not the worst a person could do, but not the best either.
