i have the aja 1999 remaster, as you've probably heard by now sound quality is superb. conversely steely, dan's pretzel logic remaster and the royal scam sound to be honest, bad.  i have all the doors remasters and sometimes its as if you are sitting on a folding chair at sunset sound studios...

not to rain on the macy's parade, but as far as philips goes, i just returned the x1("a preponderance of bass, perhaps,"(joel)). way too bass heavy. you must eq down bass every time you use the things, its a drag.... decent mids, nothing more to say really except that woman in the promo photos...
